Abstract

The management of the workday in small and medium-sized enterprises is often marked by manual processes, prone to errors and inefficiencies. This work addresses this problem through the design and development of a functional prototype of an electronic timekeeping system. The methodology involved defining requirements centered on manager and employee profiles, modeling a multi-tenant software architecture, and implementing the system using NestJS for the backend and Next.js for the frontend. As a result, a functional prototype was delivered that covers the complete timekeeping management cycle, from employee registration and shift configuration to time clocking with geolocation and the generation of reports for payroll. The heuristic evaluation of the interface, based on Nielsen’s principles, revealed a solid conceptual foundation but also identified points for improvement in visual consistency and the efficiency of certain functionalities. It is concluded that the prototype validates the feasibility of a digital timekeeping solution focused on usability for the target audience, serving as a proof of concept and a reference architecture, with its limitations and suggestions for future work duly documented.
