How to create Shifts in SalaryBox?


We are introducing our revolutionary shift management feature designed to cater to businesses with diverse scheduling needs. Whether your company requires employees to work in multiple shifts or adhere to various schedules, this feature will streamline the process effortlessly. 


You can add multiple shifts for your employees. It's very simple:

  1. Tap on > ‘Settings’ in the top right corner

  2. Tap on > ‘Shifts’

  3. Now tap on ‘Add Shifts’ and add the following details:

  1. Shift Name: Customize the name of the shift, e.g., General Shift, Morning Shift, Afternoon Shift, or Evening Shift.

  2. Shift Start Time: Specify the start time of the shift

  3. Shift End Time: Specify the end time of the shift





  1. Under Shift Start Time and Shift End Time, you will find ‘Can Punch In’ 


  1. Anytime

Employees can punch in at any time before their shift starts and punch out at any time before their shift ends. If no specific time window is set, the default window for punching in and out is from 12 AM to 12 AM.


  1. Add Limit

This defines specific time windows for employees to punch in before their shift

begins and punch out after it ends. This will ensure staff cannot punch out after a

specific time.




Let's understand with the example:
  • If a store opens at 9 AM and closes at 6 PM, staff can only punch in and out within specific time frames. To ensure staff do not punch in before 8:30 AM (30 minutes before the shift start time), you can set a limit and input 30 minutes. Similarly, to prevent staff from punching out later than 6:30 PM (30 minutes after the shift end time), you can add a limit and input 30 minutes. This helps maintain accurate time tracking and ensures adherence to designated work hours.

  • For late shifts, where staff may need to punch out past midnight, the admin can specify a duration (e.g., 4 hours) allowing punch out until 3 AM if the shift ends at 11 PM.


  1. Once you have entered all the necessary information, simply tap 'Add Shift' to complete the process.
