The right features for Retail workforce scheduling

Einsatzplanung

Wer verfügbar ist, siehst du sofort

Im Einzelhandel jonglierst du ständig mit verschiedenen Arbeitszeitmodellen, wechselnden Verfügbarkeiten und Teilzeitkräften. Mit clockin planst du deinen Personaleinsatz übersichtlich per Drag-and-Drop, mit vollständigem Überblick über bereits geplante Stunden und Abwesenheiten.

  • Verfügbarkeiten, Urlaube und Abwesenheiten sofort in der Planung sichtbar
  • Warnhinweise bei Doppelbelegung oder Stundenüberschreitung

Transparency for the team

Everyone knows when they are on

Clear communication matters most when availability changes and there are many part-time staff. In the clockin app every employee can see their personal shift schedule from anywhere, at any time. Changes to the schedule arrive as a push notification.

  • Personal shift schedule always visible in the app
  • A notification with every change to the schedule
  • No more notice boards or WhatsApp

Time tracking and absences

Hours and absences in one place

With clockin, time tracking and absences come together in one app. You always see who is clocked in and who is off sick or on vacation – without maintaining two systems.

  • One tap to clock in, right in the shop
  • Vacation and sick leave visible in the shift schedule immediately
  • A digital timesheet at month-end, exportable via DATEV

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can I set up clockin in my shop?

You are usually up and running in under an hour. Employees can download the app and start straight away – no training needed.

Does every employee need to own a smartphone?

No. Changes to the shift schedule are also announced by email. For clocking in, you should provide your employees with a tablet or smartphone in the shop.

How do I cover someone dropping out at the till at short notice?

If someone calls in sick, you see immediately who is available and how the shift can be refilled without over- or understaffing. You can release open shifts internally for employees to apply for.

Does clockin work for several stores as well?

Yes. Locations can be planned separately and employees assigned to their respective stores.

How does time tracking with clockin work?

Your employees clock in at the start of the shift with one tap on a smartphone or tablet terminal. At the end of the month clockin automatically turns this into a digital timesheet that you can process further via the DATEV integration or export.

How does absence management work with clockin?

Your employees request vacation or report sick directly in the app. You process the requests in a few clicks, and approved absences appear immediately in your workforce scheduling.

Can I print or export the shift schedule?

Yes, the schedule can be exported. For day-to-day work you rarely need it – your team sees everything directly in the app.

What does clockin cost for a typical retail business?

The cost depends on your team size. clockin starts at €3.19 per employee per month, and workforce scheduling can be added on from €24 per month depending on team size. You can also simply try clockin free for 14 days first.
