Schedule shifts &
track time.

Yes — save any week as a template with its shifts, roles and station assignments, then apply it to a future week in a single action. Keep separate templates for quiet weeks, weekends and holiday periods, and adjust the generated rota before you publish it.

As you build the rota, Vertex totals each person's scheduled hours against their contracted limit and warns you before you publish a shift that would tip them into overtime. Actual clocked hours are tracked against the plan through the week, so unplanned overtime shows up while you can still act on it rather than at the payroll run.

Approved leave is written onto the roster, so anyone who is away shows as unavailable and the scheduler flags the clash the moment you assign them a shift. You can reassign the shift to an available team member before the rota is published, so nobody is scheduled while they are off.

Yes — clock-in can be bound to a specific terminal so hours are only ever recorded on site at that device. If you would rather allow mobile punches, open clock-in up to the staff app and use geofencing to keep it inside the outlet.

Yes. Clock-in and clock-out records, breaks and any approved overtime roll into the pay period automatically, so payroll is calculated from the hours actually worked rather than from the planned rota.

Yes — scheduling permissions are scoped per outlet, so a branch manager can build and publish the rota for their own location and nothing else. Area managers and head office can be granted multi-site access when they need to see the whole group.
