Common Questions

InStaff verifies each punch with face recognition, QR scanning, or GeoFencing, so hours are tied to a confirmed identity and location. This stops buddy punching and gives you an audit-ready record of who clocked in, when, and where.

Yes. Employees can clock in from a phone, tablet, or computer. GeoFencing lets you restrict punches to approved locations, which is ideal for remote and field crews without a fixed terminal.

Missed punches are flagged automatically and surfaced to managers for review. A manager can add or correct the entry with a note, keeping the timesheet accurate before it moves to approval.

Approved hours export as CSV or PDF, or sync directly with payroll, HR, and ERP platforms such as Sage, QuickBooks, ADP, and Microsoft Dynamics, so you avoid re-keying data.

Yes. Live dashboards show who is clocked in, on which job, and for how long, with customizable reports and drag-and-drop filtering for instant insight.

InStaff can flag missed punches, approaching overtime, and rule exceptions so managers can act before the pay period closes rather than after.
