Job Time Tracking: Scan a Badge, Time the Job | Smartifie Start Stop
An operator scans a badge, picks the operation and the work order and presses START; the clock runs by itself, and FINISH records good, scrap and rework separately.
Stop typing shift hours into a spreadsheet by hand. Badge-scan start/stop/finish on a kiosk terminal, a stop-reason tree, automatic break deduction and duration/efficiency reports — in one app.
Real screens, start to finish.

How to record why a job stopped at the shop-floor terminal, and where the office sees which stops cost the most time over the last 14 days.
How to set up your downtime reason codes in Smartifie Start Stop: categories, the reasons operators type at the shop-floor terminal, and which stops are planned or count as lost machine time.
The video loads from YouTube when you press play.
The operator scans a badge, picks a job and works — the supervisor never compiles anything by hand.

A stop asks for a reason; breaks deduct automatically
Duration, downtime and quantity land on the record
Every shop running shift tracking on paper sheets and Excel hits the same five problems.
Nobody knows who stopped whenThe hours on the end-of-shift sheet are guesswork.
Downtime reasons go unrecordedThe machine stopped, but why is written down nowhere.
Break math is a messWho took a break and for how long gets worked out by hand.
End-of-shift tally takes hoursThe supervisor collects the sheets and retypes them into a spreadsheet.
No expensive MES required, but no data eitherA full MES is too costly, so nothing gets measured at all.
No standard-vs-actual efficiencyNothing compares how long a job should take against how long it actually took.
Each one came from a real problem on a real shift board.
The operator scans their badge; big START/STOP buttons work on touch or mouse.
Category → reason tree, planned and unplanned stops kept apart; a stop shorter than the threshold needs no reason on the spot: the operator taps “I will say later” and it is explained afterwards.
Define the company's break windows once — the system deducts them from worked time automatically.
Work centers, operations and work orders import from a spreadsheet in one pass.
A downtime Pareto and standard-vs-actual duration show exactly where time is lost.
The badge barcode is generated inside the product: a single card or a bulk A4 PDF (Code128).
