Scheduling & time clock

Schedule your staff. Approve the hours. Pay them right.

BooksAuto Scheduling builds the week's schedule, lets staff clock in on a tablet or their phone and turns approved hours into payroll — with your province's overtime rules. Use it on its own, or with BooksAuto Payroll.

Scheduling & time clock

From the schedule to approved hours — without the paper.

Built for restaurants, shops, clinics and every team that works in shifts.

Week schedule

Drag-free shift entry, copy last week, positions and areas, labour cost per day and overtime warnings before you publish.

Tablet time clock

An Android tablet at the door: staff punch in with their Punch ID and a photo — even when the internet drops for a while.

Staff app

Staff see their shifts, ask for swaps and time off, set their availability and get their pay stubs on their phone.

Approved time sheets

Late starts, missed punches and unscheduled shifts are flagged. Approve a week in one click — overtime follows your province's rules.

Into payroll — or out

With BooksAuto Payroll, approved hours fill the pay run. On its own, export Excel/CSV or PDF, or email them to your payroll person.

Share with your accountant

Give your accountant a free view-only login to export your approved hours — or, if they use BooksAuto, connect so hours land in their pay runs.

Three ways to use it

Works the way your payroll works.

On its own

You do payroll somewhere else

Approve the week, then export the approved hours — Excel/CSV with every day, and a PDF summary per employee — or email both to your payroll person straight from BooksAuto.

  • Regular, overtime 1.5×, double time and stat hours split for you
  • Days you exported are marked
Share with your accountant

Your accountant runs payroll

Enter your accountant's email: they get a free view-only login to see your schedule and time sheets and export approved hours. If they use BooksAuto, connect with a code and approved hours land in their pay runs automatically.

  • They can't change anything
  • You choose whether they see pay rates
