CLOCK-IN TO PAYROLL IN ONE FLOW

How ShiftDeck works

Six steps between a crew member tapping "clock in" and a clean payroll file landing in your provider. No spreadsheets, no Friday-night scramble, no "who was on the Johnson job Tuesday?" guessing.

The six-step loop

Each step feeds the next. Punches become timesheets, timesheets become approved hours, approved hours become a payroll CSV — no re-keying.

  1. Step 1

    Employee clocks in

    Mobile tap, kiosk PIN, or browser button — whatever fits the job site. Punches queue when signal drops and sync the moment LTE comes back. Optional photo-on-clock-in means no more buddy punching at the construction trailer.

  2. Step 2

    Manager monitors live status

    One screen shows who is on the clock, who is on break, and where exceptions fired. A cleaning crew owner with eight technicians across town can see every active site without making a single phone call.

  3. Step 3

    Schedules are built and published

    Drag shifts on a week board, layer in availability and conflict detection, then push-publish to phones. Open shifts go to anyone qualified — first to claim wins. A restaurant GM can post Saturday brunch coverage in under two minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Time is reviewed and approved

    Timesheets surface exceptions first — missed punches, early clock-outs, geofence flags — so you fix problems through the week instead of discovering them Friday night. Every edit carries who-changed-what history your accountant can audit.

  5. Step 5

    Payroll export runs cleanly

    Hit Export and get a CSV aligned to Gusto, ADP, Paychex, or QuickBooks Online Payroll. Approval filters ensure only reviewed time makes it into the file. One field-service owner told us it cut his Friday payroll routine from 90 minutes to 12.

  6. Step 6

    Optional kiosk mode for shared devices

    Mount a tablet at the front of house or the job-site office. Employees punch in with a PIN; managers unlock admin views with a separate code. No personal phones required — works well for kitchens, warehouses, and retail counters.

Built for the way you already work

Whether your crew is behind a counter, across town, or spread across three job sites — the loop is the same.

RESTAURANTS

Kiosk by the kitchen door, schedule published to phones, tip-pool hours calculated automatically.

CONSTRUCTION

Job-site geofences, offline punches that sync later, labor costs broken out by cost code.

FIELD SERVICE & CLEANING

Per-account geofences, real-time crew map, same-day dispute resolution instead of payroll-Friday surprises.

Common questions

Admin → Settings → Rules engine. You set grace windows, rounding increments, auto-break deductions, and geofence enforcement per location. Changes apply to future punches — nothing retroactive unless you approve it.
