Scheduling & Time Clock — Product 06
Employee scheduling and a time clock that actually reconcile.
Most scheduling tools stop at the roster. They will show you who was supposed to work, but the moment real life happens — a late punch, a manager edit, a swapped shift — the schedule and the timecard stop matching, and someone reconciles the difference by hand every pay period.
Most scheduling tools hand you a roster and leave the payroll math to you. ShiftArc runs the whole loop — build the schedule, clock the shift, catch the edits, and export clean timecards. Built to replace the incumbent at a real operation with 49 employees on the books.
- Drag-and-drop scheduling across roles, teams, and locations
- Time clock with manager-edit tracking and audit history
- Timecards that reconcile scheduled hours against punches
- Payroll export and tip pooling for hourly seasonal teams
The problem ShiftArc solves
Scheduling, time capture, and payroll usually live in three places. The schedule says one thing, the punches say another, a manager adjusted a time and nobody recorded why, and at the end of the period a human compares them line by line. For an hourly seasonal team where headcount swings and tips need pooling, that reconciliation is both the most error-prone task in the business and the one most likely to be done at midnight.
How ShiftArc works
ShiftArc runs the whole loop in one system. Shifts are built with drag-and-drop across roles, teams, and locations. The time clock captures punches and tracks every manager edit with audit history, so an adjusted time carries a record of who changed it. Timecards reconcile scheduled hours against actual punches automatically, and payroll export and tip pooling close it out.
Who ShiftArc is built for
Hourly and seasonal teams — rentals, restaurants, retail, marinas, and multi-location operators managing dozens of employees across roles and sites.

ShiftArc questions, answered
01Does ShiftArc include a time clock or just scheduling?
Both, and keeping them in one system is the entire premise. Punches are captured against the shift they belong to, so timecards reconcile scheduled hours against actual worked hours without a manual comparison.
02What happens when a manager edits someone’s punch?
The edit is tracked with audit history, so there is a record of what changed and who changed it. Untracked manager edits are one of the main reasons schedules and timecards drift apart.
03Can it handle multiple locations and roles?
Yes. Scheduling works across roles, teams, and locations, which is what multi-site hourly operations need when the same person may work different jobs at different sites.
04Does it handle tip pooling?
Yes, tip pooling is built in for hourly teams, alongside payroll export so the pay period closes out of the same system that built the schedule.
