Adding Employees Pro / Solo

Every person who will use the kiosk to clock in needs an employee record. The record stores their name, role, pay rate, and the 6-digit PIN they'll use at the kiosk.

1

Go to the Employees tab in the Sweldo admin panel and click + Add Employee.

2

Enter the employee's full name. This is what appears on the kiosk grid and on payslips.

3

Choose their role:

  • Admin — store owner or manager
  • Live Seller — the person doing the TikTok live; their clock-in/out also updates the active seller on Tagasulat sessions
  • Packer — fulfillment staff
  • Staff — general
4

Set the rate type and rate amount:

  • Daily rate — the employee earns a fixed amount per day worked (e.g., ₱500/day). This is the most common type for store staff.
  • Hourly rate — the employee earns per actual hour clocked (e.g., ₱70/hour). Useful for part-time workers.

The system derives an hourly equivalent from a daily rate by dividing by 8. This is used for late deductions, overtime pay, and night differential.

5

Set a 6-digit PIN. This is what the employee types at the kiosk to clock in or out. Choose something they can remember but won't guess easily. The PIN is stored as a bcrypt hash — it cannot be recovered, only reset.

6

Click Save. The employee immediately appears on the kiosk grid the next time the page is loaded.

💡
After adding an employee, set their work schedule so the system can detect late arrivals and overtime. Without a schedule, no late minutes are recorded and no OT/early-out prompts appear. Set up schedules →
⚠️
If you need to configure statutory deductions (SSS, PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG), withholding tax, or government ID numbers, those are in a separate section of the employee record. See Employee Settings →
