Attendance system (HereNow)
HereNow is a GPS-based attendance system operated per company (tenant). It brings together location-based clock-in, travel and field-site work checks, and approval flows so Attendance, payroll and HR operating data can be connected.
Overview
Overview
HereNow is a web system that supports GPS-based clock records and attendance operations.
Employees can clock in and out from mobile or web using location signals; the company can manage work data by organisation, site and department.
The product is designed to go beyond a simple punch clock: it links attendance approvals, working hours, lateness, early leave and on-site records so payroll and HR operations can stay aligned.
Features are isolated per tenant; each customer can configure work policies, workplaces and approval structures separately.
MSV’s accounting and tax delivery is handled by the same specialist organisation as on the Services page.
Focus
GPS-based attendance
HereNow manages clock-in/out records using GPS location.
Employees can record attendance within defined radii around plants, sites or branches; managers can review location, time and approval status.
Staff can also capture GPS-based clock-in/out and work activity from business travel locations, customer sites and field visits — not only HQ, branches and plants.
Depending on policy, operations can be linked to travel approvals, site codes and project dimensions.
In live operations, teams often manage items such as:
- GPS-based clock-in/out
- Geo-fencing around designated workplaces
- Location management by branch or site
- Lateness, early leave and hours calculation
- Site visit logs
- Attendance approval flows
- Linkage to holiday, weekend and shift policies
- Attendance data for payroll integration
Depending on company policy, GPS tolerance, eligible clock-in locations and approval steps can differ.

Data and operations
Because attendance data feeds operations and payroll, access control and tenant separation matter.
HereNow is designed with structures such as:
- Tenant-separated data
- Split administrator privileges
- History on attendance changes
- Approval audit trails
- Optional employee master linkage
- Payroll data connection reviews
Retention and operating rules follow each customer’s internal policy.
