Location manager software that fits on a phone.
Good location manager software gets out of your way. You run a floor, a shop, a clinic or a dining room, not an HR department. Netchex puts timecards, schedules, time off and new hires in one app, so approvals take a minute and payroll gets clean hours the first time.
7,500+ organizations trust Netchex
You inherited HR tasks nobody trained you for
Most managers pick up HR work the same way: a stack of paper, a text thread and a Friday deadline. Here’s where it usually falls apart.
Missed punches found at payroll
A cook forgets to clock out on Saturday. Nobody notices until payroll on Monday, and now you’re chasing a correction instead of running the shift.
Approvals that need a desk
If approving time or time off means finding a computer, it waits until the end of the day. Or the end of the week.
PTO balances nobody trusts
An employee says she has 20 hours. The spreadsheet says 12. You’re the one who has to settle it.
Hiring that stalls at the application
Long applications send good hourly candidates somewhere else. Then you’re short on a Friday night.
Paperwork that lands on you
I-9s, tax forms and handbook signatures often end up with the store manager. Nobody can say which ones are finished.
There’s a lighter way to do this
One system, on a phone, with everything a manager does in one place.
Location manager software that handles the paperwork
Three jobs take most of a manager’s admin time. Here’s what changes for each.
Catch the bad punch before it reaches payroll.
Employees punch from a phone, a kiosk or a badge reader, with geofencing and facial recognition where you need them. You get alerts when a break runs long or a day goes over the limit, and you can approve timecards without needing full edit access.
- Punch by mobile, kiosk, badge, geofence or facial recognition
- Extended break and daily hours alerts
- Approve timecards from the mobile app
Build a schedule that already knows who’s off.
Scheduler warns you when a shift conflicts with approved time off, and attendance rules apply on their own. Time-off requests follow rules you set, and PTO balances come from the same system payroll uses.
- Warnings when a shift conflicts with approved time off
- Auto-approval rules for time-off requests
- A warning before anyone goes into a negative PTO balance
Get a new hire from yes to first shift without a paper trail.
Hourly candidates can apply by text message. Once someone accepts, the offer, tax forms, I-9 and handbook sign-off run as one checklist, and the record lands in payroll without anyone retyping it.
- Apply by text in a few minutes
- One onboarding checklist for every new hire
- No re-entry into payroll
What managers get without learning HR
Kiosk, mobile, badge, geofence and facial recognition, so the method matches the work.
Know when a break runs long or a day goes over the limit, while you can still do something about it.
Accruals, blackout dates and auto-approval rules run in the background.
Managers can review and approve timecards without being able to edit everything.
Employees get answers from your own policies, so they ask the system first and you second.
Employees, managers and admins punch, request and approve from the same mobile app.
