Coffee shop time clock
PrepIt supports iPad Shop Station workflows where employees clock in and out with PINs while managers keep access to hour logs and timekeeping review.
The problem
A shop iPad should let employees clock in quickly, but it should not expose private employee data or manager tools. Coffee shops also need actual worked shifts to stay connected to pay summaries and tip workflows.
How PrepIt helps
Employees use PIN-based clock actions from the shared station. Manager-capable users can review timekeeping, hour logs, and shop status without letting regular staff access sensitive screens.
Product fit
Clock In/Out can be opened from the iPad station and prompts for an employee PIN.
PrepIt uses real employee shift records for timekeeping, tips, and pay-summary context.
Managers can review clock entries and operational timekeeping from role-gated tools.
Clocking in does not unlock private employee views or manager-only controls by default.
Example workflow
The details vary by shop, but the pattern is the same: managers prepare the work, staff execute it safely, and everyone uses the same connected context.
The shared iPad stays in Shop Station Mode during the shift.
An employee taps Clock In/Out and enters their PIN.
PrepIt records actual worked shift time for the active shop.
Managers review hour logs and related operational records from the protected manager view or web portal.
FAQ
No. Clock In/Out is separate from Employee Mode. Private views require the appropriate unlock flow.
Manager review workflows are role-gated so regular employees cannot edit timekeeping data.
No. PrepIt uses actual worked hours from employee shifts for tip eligibility and timekeeping calculations.
