01Timeline Labor Manager: The Challenge
Contractors and factory owners often track worker attendance, advances and wages on paper or shared spreadsheets, where advances and overtime get lost or disputed. Enterprise labor management systems are built for large warehouses, not for a site supervisor with one PC.
02Timeline Labor Manager: The Solution
Built a desktop labor management app on local SQLite with a worker register, daily attendance, overtime, advance and loan tracking with running balances, wage calculation and wage reports. It works offline from a single installer.
03Timeline Labor Manager: The Results
Published as a free download (version 1.0.0, Windows) at timelinedigi.com/labor-management-system, with no subscription and no worker cap. The installer is not code-signed; its SHA-256 checksum is published. Teams that need multi-site sync, attendance devices or payroll integration can have it extended through a custom build.
