RetailAlobri TimeWhat makes workforce management hard in stores and at the point of sale?
Merchandisers in stores you do not own
Merchandisers and product demonstrators work inside supermarkets and department stores. Proving they reached the assigned location, and when, often relies on photos sent by chat and manual lists.
Schedules that follow foot traffic
Weekends, seasons and promotions force store-by-store staffing changes. Without a shared tool, managers build schedules on paper and payroll receives incomplete data.
High turnover on the sales floor
Sales associates, cashiers and merchandisers change often. Hiring quickly for store openings and peak seasons without lowering process quality is constant pressure.
Commissions that cause disputes
Sales teams earn incentives based on targets, product mix or store results. Calculating them in spreadsheets leads to errors, delays and mistrust.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Alobri cost for a retail chain?
Time costs USD 2.09 per active employee per month, with a USD 40.31 monthly minimum, plus taxes. Time + Pre-payroll costs USD 3.13, and HCM Integral, with ATS and expanded People Analytics, costs USD 11.12. Each plan has a one-time implementation fee, and annual billing includes a 10% discount.
How do I track merchandisers who work in my clients' stores?
Merchandisers use the Alobri Time app on iOS or Android. Each punch confirms they are inside the geofence of the assigned store and saves a selfie as evidence. Coordinators review attendance and exceptions by route, client or supervisor in a single report.
Can I publish openings and receive candidates in Alobri?
Yes. With the ATS you publish openings on Job One+, candidates apply with their profile and the application goes straight to your pipeline. You can also feature a job for 30 days for USD 19 and add psychometric tests from USD 1.50 per test.
Does Alobri connect with my current payroll system?
Yes. You can export pre-payroll to systems such as CONTPAQi or connect Alobri to SAP HCM, SAP SuccessFactors, Workday, ADP or BambooHR through APIs, webhooks or flat files. Each integration is scoped with a technical assessment and testing.
How long does implementation take across many stores?
It depends on the number of stores, schedules and data sources. We start with discovery, load stores, roles and schedules, run a pilot in a few locations and roll out in phases. In a Google Meet demo we review your case and share the plan.
