Focus Lite allows you to setup and structure your companies working patterns, based on combined daily and pay period rules. Focus will then automatically calculate and total employee hours reducing the risk of human error during input. These totals will then be clearly visible on selected payroll and timesheet reports.
If your workers do not work a fixed or recurring shift pattern then take advantage of the Rostering module. This Rota function gives you the power to create complex day plans or detailed weekly views. Specify the shift, the department and the employee. Pro & Enterprise only. (Automatic employee alerts are also available to signal when they are scheduled to work with the use of scripting).
You will be required to action a manual download to view live data (Focus Pro & Focus Enterprise are automatically downloaded in real-time). The Watch Screen helps to see which employees are currently clocked IN or OUT and when they last clocked.
Focus Pro gives you the tools to store detailed information for individual employees such as addresses, contact numbers, NI, and much more (Please also note; Focus Enterprise allows you to create your own custom fields). Reports can be generated on all information created within the HR Personnel module.
Beyond the scope of Focus Lite, Focus Pro enables you to create more in-depth daily rules. Focus Pro can easily calculate the hours (and rate) that your workforce should be paid for. As Focus Lite allows you to create basic rules, Focus Pro introduces advanced 'Break After' & 'Bonuses'. Bespoke scripts can additionally be created to help cater for those shifts that stray out of the normal parameters.
The Fire Roll Call module is an essential tool for any business when managing your workforce in the event of an emergency. Focus's real-time data is exported into a Fire Roll Call register which can automatically be triggered and sent to a number of network printers and individual e-mail addresses once the alarm has been sounded.
Schedule reports to be automatically sent on specific days and times to pre-defined inbox's. This option is available on request using our scripting engine and the Workflow module.
Should employees forget to clock IN/OUT, times can easily be added manually through the timesheet module. Other actions such as absence bookings and daily totals can also be edited here.
Please visit our 'How-To' guide section for more on Timesheet Edits click here
The audit log within Focus Pro enabled a detailed trail of all user events actioned from within the software, these are date & time stamped against the users actions.
Our range of market leading biometric fingerprint scanner operates by reading an individuals fingerprint and can be combined with a Pin or Fob. Once the finger is verified a date and time stamp is recorded. As all fingerprints are stored as a mathematical algorithm there is no chance that a fingerprint can be replicated, this ensures that our finger biometric terminals remains GDPR compliant and eliminate any one employee clocking for another.
For all details and specifications relating to our biometric fingerprint terminal, please check out the brochure below.
The most durable biometric unit to date, the Hand-Punch 3000e is a robust, reliable and secure biometric attendance terminal.

The Hand-Punch works by measuring the contour of the individuals hand as opposed to any fingerprint biometric.

FAB (Focus Attendance Board) operates via an internal URL link and can be displayed on a Smart TV, via Monitors, Tablets or mobile phones. The FAB will monitor departments and shifts that fall below expected levels. These levels are colour coded similar to the red, amber and green alerts within the workflow module. The FAB allows supervisors to quickly establish which department or shift has which workers present. This can be helpful to identify which areas may require additional resources. Beyond showing Who's IN, the FAB can also highlight the status of all employees who are clocked OUT of the business (incl; absence and holidays) and include a live count to help maintain maximum productivity.

The Focus Workflow module comes as a bolt-on option and is only available with the Pro & Enterprise versions of Focus.

- System level warnings Once created, all workflows operate by a "traffic light" Notifier (based on the numbers and settings you have predefined into each workflow):-
Red - Action Required Amber - Monitor Closely Green - All ok!
- Scheduled / Automatic Reports The workflow reports can be setup and scheduled to be emailed to specific individuals, such as department or line managers.
