Features
Directory, a light hiring board (openings and an applicant pipeline — not a recruiting suite), invite email, org chart, time with punch evidence, PTO, a shared calendar of approved leave, light benefits admin (plans and enrollments on the file — not a carrier platform), payroll hours handoff, custom reports you can save and run (optional schedule — not a BI tool), mobile employee self-service, an installable web app on the home screen, e-sign onboarding packets, a document library on the employee e-file, documents, onboarding task workflows with reminders, offboarding checklists (not a full IT suite), manager tools, manager digests (daily or weekly — email when mail is configured), light performance (goals and simple reviews — not a talent platform), HR-only notes, in-app help, and roles. Looking for one of those? Ask Peerroll — site search in the corner — answers or opens the real page. This is the product — not a poster of a roadmap.
People directory
Name, job, site, manager, documents, and status sit on a single file. The directory is how you find someone — not a Friday export from payroll.
Hiring board
Operators post a role. Applicants sit on that opening. You move them through a simple pipeline. That is a light ATS: openings and a board. Not sourcing, not a career site, not a full recruiting product.
Invite email
Operators invite from the roster. When mail is configured, Peerroll sends the set-password link to the work email on the file. When mail is off, you copy the link and hand it over. This is invite and system mail — not a marketing list.
Org chart
The tree is built from the manager on each employee file. Search a name, expand or collapse a branch, switch to a list on a phone, and click through to the record.
Time and attendance
Clock in and out with device, source IP, and location on the punch. Exceptions stay visible to the manager who has to sign them.
PTO and time off
Accrual rules, request workflows, and balances live on the person. Managers approve what they can see. Operators set a policy once.
PTO calendar
Approved vacation and sick time land on a team calendar. Managers and operators see coverage for the week. Pending requests stay off the grid until someone signs them. Plan names and enrollments live on benefits.
Benefits admin
Operators name the plans the company already offers. Enrollment sits on the employee record. That is light benefits admin — not shopping, not a carrier file, not open enrollment as a broker.
Payroll hours handoff
Managers close the week. Operators export approved hours and approved PTO to the payroll system the employer already uses — CSV or an API payload. Peerroll does not run payroll.
Custom reports
Operators save a cut of roster, hours, or leave they already run. Run it again next Monday. Optionally put it on a schedule. This is not a BI tool.
Documents
Offer letters, handbooks, I-9 packets, and signed acknowledgements attach to the employee. Access follows the same roles as the rest of the product.
Document library
The employee e-file is folders on the person: hire packet, I-9, policies, later uploads. Signed packets land there. That is the library. Not a company-wide document management suite.
E-sign packets
People ops builds an onboarding packet from templates — offer letter, handbook, I-9 acknowledgement. The employee signs in Peerroll. The file shows sent, signed, or still open, with a trail.
Onboarding and offboarding
Day-one access, equipment, tax forms, and a first-week plan should not depend on whoever remembered the wiki. Offboarding is the same problem in reverse.
Onboarding workflows
Hire checklists assign work. Reminders fire when a task is due or late. That is the workflow: a list, an owner, a nudge. Not a full automation suite.
Offboarding checklists
Last day writes a checklist. Collect the badge, cut the accounts, keep the file. Owners by role. Remaining work stays visible. This is a task list on exit — not a full IT offboarding product.
Mobile employee self-service
Employees and managers get a phone bottom bar: Clock, Time off, and Me. Large punch controls, stacked PTO, and document or onboarding cards. Same record as the desk.
Installable app
Employees can install Peerroll as a web app on the phone they already carry. The icon opens Clock, Time off, and Me. This is not a store listing — it is the product they already use, pinned.
Manager tools
Managers get the queue they already run: time exceptions, leave requests, and who is out. Birthday dates stay on the file — not a company-wide calendar.
Manager digests
Managers get a digest of pending approvals and open tasks. Daily or weekly. The email goes out when mail is configured. This is team attention mail — not a chat product, not a campaign.
Goals and reviews
Managers set a goal on the employee file. A simple review sits next to it. That is light performance — not calibration, not a nine-box, not a talent suite.
HR-only notes
People ops sometimes needs a note that is not for the manager and not for the employee. Peerroll keeps that space on the file — behind a role.
Help and tutorial
Employees need to know how to punch and request leave. Managers need to know how to close a week. Peerroll puts a short tutorial and contextual help in the app.
Roles and access
Operators, managers, and employees do not share a login. Sensitive fields sit behind roles you can explain to counsel — and to the person whose file it is.
People directory
Name, legal data, job, site, manager, employment type, and status sit on a single employee file. The directory is how you find someone, not a weekly export from payroll.

Reporting lines
Org chart
The tree is built from the manager on each employee file. Search a name, expand or collapse a branch, and click through to the record. On a phone, the same reporting lines are a list.
Employee time tracking
Peerroll treats attendance as evidence. Each punch stores time, device, source IP, and location when the browser or device can provide it. That matters for multi-site teams, field techs, and anyone who has sat through a wage-hour review with a half-complete log.

Benefits admin
Operators name the plans the company already offers. Enrollment sits on the employee record. That is light benefits admin — not shopping, not a carrier file, not open enrollment as a broker.
Payroll hours handoff
Managers close the week. Operators export approved hours and approved PTO to the payroll system you already use. CSV or an API payload. Peerroll does not calculate tax, run deposits, or replace that system.

Saved
Save the cut. Run it. Schedule it if you want. Not a BI tool.
Custom reports
Operators save a cut of roster, hours, or leave they already run. Run it again next Monday. Optionally put it on a schedule. This is not a BI tool — no warehouse, no dashboard studio, no ad-hoc query language.
Documents
Offer letters, handbooks, I-9 packets, and signed acknowledgements attach to the employee. Access follows the same roles as the rest of the product. We do not treat a shared folder as document control.

Day one · Jordan Hale
Onboarding and offboarding
Day-one access, equipment, tax forms, and a first-week plan should not depend on whoever remembered the wiki. Offboarding is the same problem in reverse: collect the laptop, cut the accounts, keep the file.
Onboarding workflows
Hire checklists assign work. Reminders fire when a task is due or late. That is the workflow: a list, an owner, a nudge. Not a full automation suite — no branching builder, no integration marketplace.

Mobile employee self-service
Employees and managers share a phone bottom bar. Clock is a large punch control with the same location and IP trail. Time off stacks balances. Me holds document and onboarding cards on their file.

Manager tools
Managers get the queue they already run: time exceptions, leave requests, and who is out. Peerroll also sends a birthday digest to the manager of record. Dates stay on the employee file — not a company-wide calendar. The daily or weekly summary of approvals and open tasks lives on manager digests. Goals and simple reviews live on performance.

A goal you set. A simple review from the manager of record. Not calibration or a talent suite.
HR-only notes
People ops sometimes needs a note that is not for the manager and not for the employee. Peerroll keeps that space on the file, behind a role, with an audit event when someone opens it. A simple review is not this note — reviews live on performance.

In-app help
How do I clock in?
Help and tutorial
A short tutorial on first login. Contextual help on punch, leave, documents, and approvals. Replay it when a new supervisor starts. People ops should not re-teach the clock every Monday. That help lives in the product. For this marketing site, use Ask Peerroll — site search that answers or opens a page. It does not draft or send email.
Roles and access
Operators, managers, and employees do not share a login. Sensitive fields (compensation, medical notes, government IDs) sit behind roles. See roles and access for the day-to-day split, and Security for encryption, backups, and how we talk about HIPAA.
