ActiveRoster

ActiveRoster provides real-time staffing information for individual departments or schedule groups. It allows you to see when your employees are scheduled to come in and where they should be working. ActiveRoster compares employee clockings to employee schedules, which helps you determine the employees that are scheduled and currently clocked in, who has not shown up for work yet, and who clocked in late or early.

When you have current, convenient staffing information, you can make fast, fair, and informed staffing decisions. Staffers can see actual coverage compared to the needed staff and can make scheduling and clocking changes immediately, all from a single screen.
