Contract workers attendance
Contractors clock in like everyone else and carry the agency they come from. Approved hours can be grouped by agency, location or worker for the agency's invoice and for your own cost reports.
In plain words
Contract workers are paid for through someone else: an agency, a subcontractor or a client. The hours they work have to be proved to that third party, and often invoiced by it. That makes attendance records not just an internal matter but a document someone else will read.
In dayFlow a contractor is an ordinary person in the system with one extra fact: their agency. They clock in with the same face and location checks as staff, and the payroll close can then group approved hours by agency, by location or by worker.
What you get
Set the agency on a person's profile. From then on it appears in the payroll close, and you can see hours per agency without sorting a spreadsheet.
In practice
A contractor's punch is face-checked and location-checked exactly like an employee's, so the hours you pass on to the agency are backed by the same evidence as your own payroll.
In practice
Approved hours can be exported by agency for an invoice, by location for a client, and by worker for a check. Only approved days are counted, so what you export is what a manager signed.
In practice
Contractors start and finish all the time. Add them quickly, archive them when they leave, and their history stays for the invoice that arrives a month later.

Examples
A staffing company
Two agencies supply cleaners to the same building. At month end the hours per agency are exported from verified, approved days and match each agency's invoice.
A construction contractor
Subcontractor crews are tagged with their company. The site manager approves the week and the payroll file shows hours per subcontractor.
A client audit
A client asks for proof of the hours billed in March. The approved days, with their punches and photos where flagged, are all there.

Who it is for
Part of a whole
Contractor hours follow the same path as everyone's: punch, review, approval and the payroll close, where they are grouped by agency. Face and location rules are what make the numbers defensible to a third party.
Questions
Set their agency on their profile. They then appear under that agency in the payroll close.
Not today. Your own managers approve the hours, and you export them per agency.
They use the same app or a shared kiosk, with face and location checks like staff.

Set their agency on their profile. People with no agency are your own employees.
They can use the app on their own phone or a shared kiosk, like anyone else.
No. Each person sees only their own timecard.
Set up your locations, register faces and let your team clock in. Your company gets its own address.
