Pain points every maintenance owner knows

These aren't hypothetical — they're the exact headaches that eat your Friday afternoons and make payroll week miserable.

  • Techs are in motion all day, missed punches stack up, and by Friday you're guessing at three workers' hours.
  • Customers expect ticket-level accountability — they want to see exactly how many hours went into their building.
  • Edits to time records need to be defensible if a labor dispute or audit comes through.
  • Multi-property contracts need labor cost broken out per site without manual gymnastics.

Features that fix it — mapped to your workflow

Every bullet below links to a feature page with full details, screenshots, and FAQ. Nothing vaporware — it's either live or on the 90-day roadmap.

Exception-first review

The Friday review surfaces every missed punch, edit, and outlier — you fix them in two minutes per worker.

Full audit trail

Every edit captures who, when, why. Print-ready PDF if a dispute or audit ever lands.

Per-site labor

Tag every punch to a property or asset; reports break labor out by site for invoicing or chargebacks.

Labor reports

See OT trends, exception rates, and labor cost per site — catch problems in week 1, not at year-end.

Monday-to-Friday in ShiftDeck

Here's what a typical week looks like for a maintenance shop running ShiftDeck. No theory — just the steps.

  1. Configure pay periods, OT rules, and rounding once at setup — they apply to every worker.
  2. Techs clock with a job tagged to the property; the live board shows who's where.
  3. Managers clear exceptions daily — missed clock-outs, late starts, off-property punches.
  4. Friday: approve hours, export to payroll, generate per-site labor cost reports for billing.
  5. Quarter-end: pull audit-trail PDF for any property under review — every edit defensible.

Maintenance FAQ

Yes — turn on note-on-edit in settings → rules and any change to a punch requires a documented reason. The note shows on the audit trail and in any exported report.
