Who came in, and for how long — from a phone, or a reader at the gate.

Check in with a location and a selfie, or tap a biometric reader at the door. Shifts, late marks, overtime and corrections follow the rules you set, and the month closes without a spreadsheet because payroll reads it directly.

Why people buy it

Three things it is bought to put an end to.

The register is a photograph

A muster roll on paper, photographed and sent at month end, is a record nobody can total until somebody types it in.

Late is a matter of opinion

Ten minutes late every day costs nothing anywhere, and "three lates make a half day" is a line in a handbook rather than a rule that runs.

Hours and salary disagree

Hours in one sheet and pay in another, and a day that is present in one and absent in the other by the time pay day arrives.

What is in it

The whole module, listed out.

Nothing here is coming soon. It is what an account opens with on day one of the trial.

Check-in from a phone

One button, with whatever proof the company asks for.

  • Check in and check out on a phone or a desktop, and the day is written as it happens
  • A selfie at check-in, where somebody clocking in for a colleague is a real risk
  • A geofence per work location — a check-in from outside it is flagged for review or refused, your choice
  • Checkout optional: record only that somebody turned up, if that is all you need
  • A missed or wrong day corrected by request, reviewed by whoever you name — never by somebody editing the record

Biometric readers

For a company that records at the gate rather than on a phone.

  • Upload the reader’s export each day or each week; the same file twice is safe
  • Or issue the reader a push URL, so every tap arrives the moment it is made
  • Or use the reader’s own cloud setting — eSSL and ZKTeco readers that take only an address and a port — accepted only from the addresses you list
  • Enrolments map each reader id to a person from a date; a tap under an id nobody holds is kept, never dropped
  • Coverage: a working day a reader was expected on and sent nothing is a gap, and payroll waits until somebody clears it

Shifts and calendars

Everyone on the same hours, or not.

  • Default hours with a grace period and the minutes that make a half day and a full day
  • Shifts with their own thresholds and working days — alternate Saturdays, a night rota that runs past midnight
  • A working calendar with weekly offs and holidays: company-wide, per state, or optional up to a limit each person chooses
  • Short leave for an hour out of the building, with its own approver and a monthly allowance

Late marks and overtime

The rules a handbook states, actually run.

  • A monthly allowance of forgiven lates, then a penalty: a note, half a day of loss of pay, or a debit from a leave balance you name
  • A penalty never rewrites the day — the record still says a full day was worked and the arrival was late, and the penalty is its own entry
  • Overtime policies with a daily minimum, a weekly cap and a rate for each kind of day, never below twice the ordinary rate
  • A month of overtime sent for approval by the supervisor who checked it, and signed off by somebody else
  • Corrections limited by how far back and how many a month — and always refused into a payroll month that has been paid

Reports

What the register adds up to.

  • Attendance, leave and headcount, filtered by department and exported to CSV exactly as shown
  • An overtime register in seven views, including the man-hours shape a state annual return asks for
  • Hours here, money on the payslip: the register never prints a rupee figure that could disagree with payroll

Read it before you buy it

3 written guides, open to everybody.

The same documentation the product ships with, published in full. No form, no account.

What it does not do

Easier to read now than to discover in week three.

  • Attendance is part of HR & Payroll, not a product on its own. There is no attendance-only plan; the price below is the whole module’s, and it includes leave, expenses and payroll whether or not you use them.
  • A company records from phones or from readers, not both at once. The switch from one to the other is made per company from a date, and it is made by us on request rather than from a setting.
  • There is no hardware. Facto Lite reads a reader’s export or receives its taps; it does not sell, install or configure the reader.
  • Hours are recorded for a person, not against a job. There is no timesheet by task or by project.
Questions

Asked before, answered here.

Does everybody need a smartphone?

No. A company can record attendance at a biometric reader instead — Facto Lite reads the reader’s export, or receives each tap as it happens. On a company that checks in from phones, somebody without one can have their day corrected by HR.

What happens on a day the reader sends nothing?

Nobody is marked absent. One broken reader would otherwise dock a whole shift, so a day a reader was expected on and sent nothing is listed as a gap, you are notified, and the payroll month cannot be sent for approval until it is cleared — by uploading the export, repairing the days, or noting that the site was shut.

Can a late arrival cost half a day?

Yes, once you say so. Until you set a policy, lateness is recorded and costs nothing. With one, a set number of lates a month are forgiven and each further one costs what you choose — a note, half a day of loss of pay, or a debit from a leave balance.

Does attendance stop if we stop paying?

No. When a trial or a subscription ends there is a week in which everything is still readable and exportable, and attendance keeps working through it — check-in is the one write that is never paused, because a week with no attendance record is a week of loss of pay for people who came to work.

Record one month, and close it without a spreadsheet.

Sixty days, all three features, no card. Put one team on it, set the late-mark rule you already have in the handbook, and see what the register says on the 1st.
