Prep Station
For kitchen & catering crews
Labor on the clock Not a clipboard by the walk-in
Prep Station runs a kiosk time clock at each location. Staff punch in with a tile, PIN, or badge; managers get hours, overtime, and break reports ready for payroll.

Why use Prep Station attendance
01
Punch where the work is
A kiosk at each kitchen means nobody waits on a manager laptop to start the shift.
02
Breaks that count correctly
Paid and unpaid breaks land in hours reporting so payroll is not a spreadsheet guess.
03
Labor you can price
Hours and overtime reports show what the crew actually cost against the week you ran.

A paper punch sheet is not a labor system. Forgotten outs and unpaid lunches show up on the P&L.
Catering crews move between prep, packing, and routes. If punches live on a clipboard or a generic app, overtime and breaks become a month-end surprise instead of a number you can manage.
Take labor seriously
The people who ran the event should clock where they work, and the hours should land in one report managers can trust.
Clock-in that fits the crew
Tile, PIN, or badge at the kiosk
One board per location. Staff punch the way your kitchen already works; managers keep one set of entries to review and adjust.
-
Tile
Tap a name on the board. Status shows Off, On the clock, or On break.
-
PIN
Enter a personal PIN when you need a quieter punch without hunting a tile.
-
Badge
Scan or type a badge ID for fast handoff punches at the door.
Enter PIN to clock in / out
Downtown kitchen kiosk
No manager laptop required
Open the kiosk link on a tablet at the door
Each location gets its own kiosk link. Mount a tablet, enable the methods you want, and the crew punches without logging into the full app.
- Per-location welcome message and photo options
- Require PIN on tile punches when you need it
- Managers still edit entries when someone forgets to punch out
Walk the kiosk board and PIN pad with a real kitchen crew in the live demo.
Breaks & lunch
Paid vs unpaid time that payroll can trust
Start a rest break or lunch from the kiosk. Unpaid break time is deducted from worked hours so reports match what you owe, not what the clipboard forgot.
- Rest and meal breaks from the on-clock action menu
- Managers edit break start, end, type, and paid flag on the entry
- Total break and unpaid hours roll into the attendance report

The crew is the cost
Know who worked the event before payroll asks
Punches at the door. Breaks on the entry. Hours in the report. Labor stops being the number you discover after the invoice went out.
Labor that connects to the rest of the day
Drivers on the clock feed Delivery Hub. Opening work stays on tasks and checklists. See pricing for plans.
Questions kitchen managers ask
Straight answers about the kiosk, breaks, and hours reports.
Does each location get its own time clock?
Yes. Prep Station runs a kiosk time clock per location so staff can punch in at the kitchen without needing a manager laptop.
How do employees clock in?
Three ways that fit how your team works: tap a name tile on the kiosk board, enter a PIN, or scan a badge.
Can we track breaks and lunch?
Yes. Break tracking records rest and meal breaks, and unpaid break time is deducted from worked hours in reporting.
Do hours and overtime export for payroll?
Yes. Hours and overtime reports show worked time, overtime, lateness, breaks, and estimated pay by employee and location, with export for payroll.
How does attendance connect to delivery?
Employees can be flagged as drivers. That pool feeds Delivery Hub driver assignment so the people on the clock match the routes you dispatch.
Can managers adjust punches after the fact?
Yes. Managers review and edit time-clock entries, including check-in, check-out, and breaks, so payroll stays accurate when someone forgets to punch out.
Is attendance included on every plan?
Attendance is a paid feature. See pricing for which plans unlock the time clock, kiosk, and hours reports.
