Attendance system for warehouses and distribution centres

Warehouse attendance lives or dies on overtime. Peaks are unpredictable, shifts extend without notice, and the difference between a shift that ran long and one that did not is the difference between a correct wage bill and a disputed one.

A warehouse needs attendance that treats overtime as a first-class record rather than something inferred from a long gap between punches. AionHRMS captures overtime-in and overtime-out as distinct event types alongside ordinary check-in, check-out and break events, assigns punches to the correct shift, and carries the result into a salary calculation that itemises what was paid and why.

Overtime is the whole problem

Most attendance software records two punches a day and calls the rest arithmetic. That fails the moment a shift extends, because there is no way to distinguish overtime from someone who simply forgot to punch out.

  • Overtime-in and overtime-out recorded as their own event types
  • Break-out and break-in captured separately, not inferred
  • Every punch keeps its terminal, so you can tell which dock or gate it came from
  • Nothing silently rounded — the raw event stays readable

Peaks without paperwork

Seasonal hiring means enrolling and revoking dozens of temporary staff quickly. Doing that from a browser rather than a keypad is what keeps the system in use through a peak instead of abandoned during one.

  • Bulk-add temporary staff and push them to every gate in one action
  • Templates sync across terminals so nobody re-scans at a second dock
  • Access revoked the day a seasonal contract ends
  • Monthly payroll report covering permanent and temporary staff together

Frequently asked questions

Does it calculate overtime pay?
Overtime punches are captured as distinct events and appear in the attendance record. Salary is computed from shift units present with late deductions applied; if you need overtime paid at a specific multiplier, tell our team what rule you use so we can be precise about what is supported today.
Can we have separate terminals per dock?
Yes, and every punch records which terminal it came from.
How fast can we enrol seasonal staff?
Employees are created in the browser and pushed to terminals in one action. The first biometric scan happens at the device; after that the template propagates to your other terminals automatically.
