Time Tracking

Replace paper timesheets with a real time clock.

Staff clock in and out from any device. Breaks are tracked automatically, overtime is flagged before it becomes a payroll problem, and every entry goes through manager approval before export.

Sound familiar?

Paper timesheets get lost, altered, or forgotten

Handwritten hours are easy to change and impossible to audit. At month-end, reconciling who worked what becomes a time-consuming, error-prone process.

No break tracking means compliance gaps

You have no record of when breaks were taken or if rest periods met legal requirements. One audit is all it takes to expose the risk you did not know you were carrying.

Overtime surprises you every payroll cycle

By the time you notice hours accumulating, the cost is already locked in. Without real-time visibility, you react after the fact instead of preventing it.

Everything your time tracking needs

GPS clock-in and clock-out

Staff clock in from the terminal app or any device. GPS coordinates and address are captured at check-in, confirming on-site presence without continuous location monitoring.

Break tracking with auto-deduction

Start and end breaks with one tap. Terminz records exact break minutes, flags missing legally required breaks, and applies auto-deduction rules you configure per business.

Overtime flagging and daily limits

Every entry is checked against contracted hours and ArbZG daily limits. Overtime is calculated in real time and flagged in the manager approval center before payroll runs.

Manager approval workflow

Staff submit entries for review. Managers see all pending timesheets in one place, can approve, reject with a reason, or request corrections — with a full audit trail preserved.

Billable hours with hourly rates

Mark entries as billable, attach hourly rates, and let Terminz calculate billable amounts automatically. Ideal for service businesses charging by the hour.

CSV export for payroll

Export approved timesheets as structured CSV with a date-range picker. Clean, per-staff hour totals, break deductions, and overtime flags — ready for your payroll system or accountant.

Frequently asked questions

Is GPS tracking always on?

No. GPS verification is opt-in and configured per business or location. When enabled, Terminz captures coordinates and address at the moment of clock-in — there is no continuous or background location monitoring.

How does the timesheet approval workflow work?

Staff submit their entries at the end of each day or week. Managers see all pending timesheets in an approval center, can review each entry, add notes, approve, or reject with a written reason. Every action is logged in a permanent audit trail.

Does Terminz help with ArbZG compliance?

Yes. Terminz enforces configurable daily and weekly hour limits and flags entries that would breach ArbZG thresholds — such as 10-hour daily maximums or 48-hour weekly caps. Managers are alerted before approval, not after payroll.

How are break rules handled?

You configure break requirements in Time Tracking Settings — minimum break durations, auto-deduction thresholds, and whether breaks are paid or unpaid. Terminz flags entries where required breaks are missing or too short.

What export formats are available for payroll?

Timesheets export as CSV with a configurable date range. Each row includes staff name, clock-in/out timestamps, scheduled vs. actual hours, break minutes, overtime minutes, billable amount, and approval status.
