Work Hours is Hubumo’s NFC time-tracking module. Hubumo stations record staff clock-ins and clock-outs, while Manager calculates total hours, estimates pay using hourly rates recorded in Staff, and exports PDF reports. The dashboard shows whether the time-clock system and each station are online, offline, or not recently connected. It also provides restart controls and LCD display settings, including Wi-Fi, background images, auto-cropping, 180-degree rotation, and background filters. The idle screen displays the wallpaper, Hubumo mark, Ready, and Tap your card. The same NFC cards can also be used for Staff app access through NFC or roster-based access.
Explore the Work Hours tools for NFC time tracking, station management, and staff access.
Staff tap their NFC card at the station to clock in, pause, or resume a shift. Holding the card on the reader ends the shift. When idle, the station displays Ready when it is online, together with Tap your card, the venue background image, and the Hubumo logo.
Each station sends status updates to Manager approximately every 60 seconds and should appear online within about 90 seconds. Restart a station if it stops responding. In Wi-Fi settings, enter the network name and password, then save the settings to the station. You can also upload or replace the 320 × 172 background image, rotate the display by 180 degrees, and adjust the background filter. The background filter uses the same scale as the TV display: 40 is brighter, 92 is darker, and 72 is the default.
In Settings → Staff app access, choose NFC-based or roster-based access. POS, Waiter, Kitchen, and Door remain locked until an authorised NFC action is completed at a Work Hours station or with an NFC-enabled Manager phone. Manager access remains available to authorised managers.
Enable the Work Hours module from Manager → Subscription.
In Staff, select Read, then tap the NFC tag on a Work Hours station. You can also use Web NFC where supported.
When the station displays Ready and Tap your card, staff tap their NFC card to clock in, pause, or resume, and hold it on the reader to clock out.
In Work Hours, select the date range and staff members, then export a PDF showing working hours and estimated pay.
