Split shift & break management
Configure morning prep, lunch service, evening, and closing shifts for kitchen, floor, and cashier staff — with automatic break deductions and overtime tracking.
Compact biometric terminals
Small-footprint ZKTeco fingerprint terminals fit on any counter or wall — fast enough for a 10-second check-in during busy shift handovers.
Mobile check-in for delivery staff
Delivery riders and outdoor service staff check in via GPS-verified mobile app — their location is captured with every punch.
Per-outlet attendance reports
Restaurant groups and franchise chains see attendance broken down by branch — identify understaffed outlets and chronic absence patterns in seconds.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can AITIME handle split shifts for restaurant staff?
Yes. AITIME fully supports split shifts — where staff work a morning service, take a break, and return for an evening service. Each segment is tracked separately, with automatic break deductions applied before calculating total hours and overtime.
How does AITIME work for a restaurant chain with multiple branches?
Each branch is set up as a separate location in AITIME. Restaurant group managers can see attendance across all branches simultaneously, while branch managers see only their own team. Reports can be filtered or exported per branch.
Can I track part-time and casual staff differently from permanent employees?
Yes. AITIME supports multiple employment types in the same system. Part-timers and casual staff can have their own shift rules, pay rates, and contract terms — all tracked separately from permanent staff.
Does AITIME work for delivery riders and outdoor staff?
Yes. Delivery staff and outdoor service employees use the AITIME mobile app with GPS check-in. Their location is verified against the restaurant outlet or delivery zone when they clock in and out.
