Staff Attendance App by Field Team Tracking

Staff attendance app punch in: how the check works

A staff attendance app replaces the register with a punch on each employee’s phone. Here is the Field Team Tracking flow. The worker opens the app and taps Punch in. The camera wants a blink first and then one movement chosen at random. If the owner has drawn a radius around the office, the app also confirms the phone is inside it. Once the checks pass, the punch is stored with its time. Without signal, it waits on the phone and goes to the account after the connection returns. Lunch and tea are logged with the Break button, and work restarts with Resume work. Each pause is kept. In the evening the worker punches out and sees the day’s hours. For every branch, the owner decides the radius, the shift timings, the weekly offs, the late rule and the half-day rule, and the web report applies them to each punch.

Staff attendance app for field staff and desk staff

Desk staff punch in at the office and stay inside the radius. Field staff can sit in a branch that accepts punches from outside the office. Those people may switch on live location the first time they punch in; after that it maps their route only while they are on shift.

The employee location tracking app page shows how those routes look. The sales team tracking app page shows how a visit joins the customer record. Owners who want attendance, calls and field work under one roof can read the staff management app page. The live face check has its own page, the selfie attendance app, and so does the radius rule, the GPS attendance app. Turning punches into weekly and monthly hours is covered on the employee hours tracking app page, and a spreadsheet layout for teams not ready for an app is the staff attendance sheet. What a single punch checks is shown on the punch in punch out app with location page, and boundaries per branch on the geofence attendance app page. Which location rule suits desk, field or mixed teams is explained on the employee attendance app with location page. Reading monthly absences and late marks is covered on the staff attendance tracker page, and a company rollout on the selfie attendance system page.

Staff attendance app setup for a new branch

1. Create the branch and set the office location.
2. Choose the radius, the shift timings, the weekly offs and the late rule.
3. Choose if punches from outside the radius are allowed.
4. Invite each employee and ask them to punch in once as a test.

Staff attendance app price per employee

Pricing counts employees, not branches. An Indian business pays ₹159 per employee each month with yearly billing, or ₹249 each month with quarterly billing. Businesses abroad pay USD 29 a year or USD 12 a quarter for each employee. Add tax to these figures. Let a few staff test it during the 3-day trial before the whole branch joins.

Staff attendance app limits

• Payroll. No salary calculation and no salary slips. Export the Excel report into your payroll tool.
• Leave requests. There is no leave application and approval flow; days off are set per branch.
• Shift rosters. Hours are fixed per branch, so rotating shifts need a rostering tool.
• Shared devices. Each employee punches on their own phone; one tablet at the door is not a supported setup.

Staff attendance app example: a facility company in Dubai

Sample business, invented for this page. A facility services firm in Dubai has 3 sites and 60 cleaners and guards. Supervisors used to collect paper sheets on Thursday and type them on Friday.

Each site is now a branch with its own radius and a 7:15 late cut-off. Guards punch in with a selfie at the gate. At one site the signal is weak, so 4 punches reach the account later, after the phones reconnect. At month end the office downloads the report for each of the 3 branches, and the Friday typing stops.
