Quick answers

8 common questions from UK operations and HR teams evaluating workforce software.

What is staff rota software?

Staff rota software helps managers create employee schedules, track attendance, manage leave requests and monitor labour costs from one platform. It replaces spreadsheets and messaging apps with workforce management software built for shift-based teams.

Is this suitable for London restaurants?

Yes. Alphanomic is designed for London hospitality teams managing kitchen, bar and front-of-house rotas across busy service periods. Restaurants in Soho, Covent Garden and across Central London use it to publish rotas faster and control labour costs.

Can I manage multiple London locations?

Yes. Alphanomic supports multi-location scheduling from a single account. You can manage location-specific teams across boroughs, compare labour costs between sites and publish rotas for every London location from one central dashboard.

Does the software include attendance tracking?

Yes. Employees can clock in and out through mobile, web or approved attendance methods. Managers monitor late arrivals, overtime and real-time attendance across restaurants, hotels, retail stores and care teams.

Can employees request leave through the platform?

Yes. Leave requests, approvals and team leave calendars are built into the platform. Managers see approved absences before building rotas, reducing scheduling conflicts caused by annual leave and unplanned absences.
