Best attendance & time tracking for manufacturers in India

Attendance and time-tracking products capture when and where people work — through biometric devices, face recognition, geo-fenced mobile check-in or desktop timers — and feed shifts and overtime into payroll. Field-force and factory attendance are different problems from office attendance. For manufacturers specifically, raw material, work-in-progress and finished goods all need separate tracking.

What manufacturers need from attendance & time tracking

  • Raw material, work-in-progress and finished goods all need separate tracking
  • Job work and subcontracting have their own GST treatment and challan trail
  • Shop-floor staff work shifts, and attendance rarely fits a nine-to-five model
  • Costing has to account for wastage and rework, not just the bill of materials
  • Quality records and certifications are demanded by larger customers

What should manufacturers check in a attendance & time tracking demo?+

Raw material, work-in-progress and finished goods all need separate tracking. Job work and subcontracting have their own GST treatment and challan trail. Shop-floor staff work shifts, and attendance rarely fits a nine-to-five model. Match the capture method to the workforce: factories need devices, field teams need GPS with selfie, offices often need nothing more than Wi-Fi or app check-in.

Which attendance app works without a biometric device?+

Most HRMS mobile apps support selfie and GPS check-in; dedicated field-force apps add geo-fencing and route tracking.
