Turning clock-ins into payroll-ready timesheets

Rotas show what was planned; payroll needs what actually happened. Orbis Shift records clock-ins, clock-outs and breaks against each shift and gives you hours you can export.

The problem

Why this is hard without the right tool

Paper signing-in sheets and memory-based timesheets lead to disputes, overpaid hours and a long evening before every pay run. Late starts and early finishes go unnoticed.

How Orbis Shift helps

Step by step

  1. 1

    Staff clock in and out

    Staff clock in and out on their phone or a shared device, and start and end breaks the same way.

  2. 2

    Compare actual hours with the rota

    Each entry is matched to the planned shift, so lateness, early finishes and overtime stand out.

  3. 3

    Handle overtime properly

    Staff can request overtime, and managers approve or decline it with a record of the decision.

  4. 4

    Export for payroll

    Timesheets total the hours per person, ready to export as CSV for your payroll provider.
