How it works

From setup to your first published week

Set up your company once on the web, connect a tablet at each site, and your team works from their phones. Here is what each step looks like.

Up and running in three steps

  1. Web dashboard

    Set up your company

    Create your sites and departments, then invite your managers and staff.

    • Create your sites and their departments
    • Add managers and employees, with their role and site
    • Create your leave, absence and document types in your own words
    • Connect a tablet at the entrance of each site
  2. Mobile app · Tablet kiosk

    Your team uses the app

    Employees see their shifts, request leave and punch in at the site kiosk.

    • See their shifts for the week on their phone
    • Clock in on the tablet with a PIN, or with the app or a QR code when you allow it
    • Request leave and follow the answer
    • Send and receive their documents
  3. Web dashboard

    You stay in control

    Owners and administrators follow planning, attendance and absences from the web dashboard.

    • Build and publish the planning, department by department
    • Compare planned and punched hours in attendance
    • Approve leave with the balance in view
    • Export the hours for payroll in Excel or CSV

Connect the time-clock tablet

Any iPad or Android tablet becomes the time clock of a site in a few minutes.

  1. 1

    Create a code

    In the dashboard, open Settings → Time-clock tablets and create a one-time code, valid for 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Enter it on the tablet

    Open the Averty time-clock app on the tablet and type the code. The tablet is now connected to that site.

  3. 3

    Staff clock in with their PIN

    Each employee types their own PIN, so every punch is theirs. You can disconnect the tablet at any time.

Your first week

A typical start for a site. Go at your own pace: nothing is locked in.

  1. Day 1

    Set up

    Create your sites, departments and the types of leave and absence you use.

  2. Day 2

    Invite your team

    Add your staff and connect the tablet. Employees sign in to the app on their phone.

  3. Day 3

    Publish the planning

    Build next week department by department and publish it: everyone sees their shifts.

  4. End of week

    Check the hours

    Compare what was planned with what was punched, correct a forgotten punch with a reason.
