Three-shift rotations run without gaps, and shift premiums calculate themselves.
A line running continuously does not forgive an empty post. And night premiums, shift bonuses and Sunday handovers are exactly what gets recounted by hand every month.

Continuous rotation, handovers included
Shift, night, Sunday, public holiday
Labour cost, workshop by workshop
What is stuck today
The rotation is settled; the arithmetic is still manual
The uncovered handover
An operator is missing on nights: the line stops, and you hear it from production.
Premiums recalculated
Shift bonus, night premium, Sunday worked: three calculations redone every month.
Cost per line unknown
You know material cost per line, not labour cost.
The production cycle
Three shifts, no gaps
The three-shift cycle is a template: the grid opens filled, and a post with no operator is flagged before the handover, not after the line stops.

The morning post with no operator is flagged before the handover, not after the line stops.
WeplanifySC| Operator | Shift | Clock-in | State |
|---|---|---|---|
| S. Kane | Morning | 05:52 | clocked |
| D. Ba | Afternoon | 14:06 | clocked |
| M. Fall | Night | 22:31 | 31 min late |
| A. Sow | Night | – | absent |
Lateness is measured against the operator’s actual shift, not one factory-wide start time.
Payroll and cost per workshop
Shift premiums, calculated at source
Nights, Sundays, holidays and shift premiums reach the payslips on their own, and the cost is then spread across lines.
WeplanifySC| Operator | Days | Night h | Net |
|---|---|---|---|
| S. Kane | 26 / 30 | – | 241 700 |
| D. Ba | 25 / 30 | 56 h | 268 300 |
| M. Fall | 24 / 30 | 160 h | 296 800 |
| Net payroll | 6 148 200 |
“Special” = rest day worked + statutory rest + holiday worked. It is spelled out in the legend, because nobody guesses it.

Labour cost per line, to set against your production volumes.
Getting started
One pilot line
Week 1: your cycles
Shifts, rotations, shift bonuses, premium rules.
Week 2: handovers clock in
Clock-in at the workshop entrance, QR code or face recognition.
Month end: payroll
Bonuses and premiums calculated at source, no more manual rework.
Then: cost per line
To match against your volumes for a real unit cost.
« We knew material cost per kilo. Labour cost per line is new. »
The modules involved
Start with a single line.
We set up its three-shift cycle and show you the real cost of one week of production.
