Time & Attendance.
Every site, in real time.
Capture attendance, manage shifts, control overtime and monitor workforce activity across every location, with a booking method for every kind of workplace.
Key functions
✓
Clockings from every attendance point land on one timesheet, live.
✓
Exceptions, missing clockings, lateness, unplanned absence, flagged for resolution, not hunted for.
✓
Overtime calculated by your rules: premiums, rounding, grace periods.
✓
Rosters and working patterns compare planned against actual.
✓
Payroll-ready hours export to Sage, Xero and 50+ payroll systems.
Plan
Rosters and work patterns.
Build rotating week patterns once, then override any day with a roster. timeware® always knows which shift applies: roster first, then the pattern.
Key functions
✓
Rotating week patterns: 4-on 4-off, alternating earlies and lates, anything.
✓
Roster by shift or by person, the same schedule from both views.
✓
Double-booking is blocked at save, not discovered on payday.
✓
Staffing policies check required skills and job roles per shift.
✓
Every roster change flows into the affected timesheets automatically.
Calculate
Your rules, applied the same way every time.
Every shift runs through the same calculation pipeline, so pay is consistent, explainable and audit-ready.
Key functions
✓
Grace windows and rounding applied before a minute of pay is calculated.
✓
Break rules that match reality: fixed lunch, floating breaks, or earned after hours worked.
✓
Anomalies surface on the timesheet the moment they happen, not at period end.
✓
Night shifts that cross midnight are handled natively.

Every calculated value can be traced back to the rule that produced it.

Opening balance, accrual and closing balance calculated automatically each period.
✓
Core working hours enforced, staff flex around them, not through them.
✓
Carry-over limits cap credit and deficit; the rest spills for approval.

Employees see their live balance in the ESS app.

Fixed, flexitime and open shifts can mix within one workforce.

Questions
Time & Attendance, answered.
How can employees clock in?
timeware® supports Attendance Points for every workplace, mobile app, NFC, biometric face and fingerprint devices, and proximity fobs.
Does it handle overtime and shifts?
Yes. Rotating work patterns, rosters, overtime at 1.25×, 1.5× and 2× or your own rates, grace periods, rounding and break rules, all applied automatically.
What is Roll Call?
Roll Call gives live, on-site visibility during an evacuation and can be triggered automatically by your fire panel, helping confirm everyone is safe.
Does attendance feed payroll?
Yes. Payroll-ready hours flow directly from the terminal to your back office with no rekeying, and integrate with leading payroll systems.
