Payroll & charge

Pay what they worked. Charge what you agreed.

Booked-on times rarely match the roster to the minute. ShiftTracker reconciles expected, actual, payroll and charge for every shift — so people are paid fairly, clients are billed correctly, and you always know your margin.

01 / ARBITRATION

Reconcile expected vs actual, automatically.

Run arbitration across the week and ShiftTracker settles each shift — auto-arbitrated where it’s clean, flagged as “manual advised” where a booked-on time drifted past tolerance. Total pay and total charge update as you go.

02 / EVERY MINUTE

Pay rate, charge rate, breaks and multipliers — in one place.

Open any shift and adjust the actual, payroll and charge times independently. Set pay and charge rates, minimum hours, overtime multipliers and paid breaks. Decide whether it goes to payroll, to invoice, or both — then it’s locked and logged.

03 / MARGIN

Know your margin on every shift and site.

The Payroll & Charge analysis lays expected, actual, payroll and charge hours next to each other with the variance in between. See exactly where actual hours ate into margin — by employee, by site, by week.

04 / EXPORT
