How Minnesota’s Department of Corrections Modernized Time & Attendance with BiznusSoft HR on Salesforce
The Minnesota Department of Corrections (MN DOC) oversees more than 7,000 incarcerated individuals, manages statewide parole and probation, and runs rehabilitation programs. With strict rules limiting electronic devices and high inmate mobility across multiple workplaces, traditional timekeeping solutions simply weren’t cutting it.
They chose BiznusSoft HR because of our fast, agile implementation team and our ability to build a custom barcode scanning system tailored to their unique security needs—with audit-grade data accuracy.

Customer Pain Points
No system to track inmate time and scheduling—existing HR software wasn’t suited to corrections
Inmates moving between multiple work areas daily made traditional time clocks ineffective
Mobile phone–based tracking wasn’t an option due to security restrictions
Time approvals were slow and error-prone because they relied on outdated spreadsheets
Lack of reporting and historical records created challenges for supervisors and finance teams
The Solution: BiznusSoft HR on Salesforce
Custom, Secure, Barcode‑Driven Time Tracking
If your organization faces similar security and operational challenges, BiznusSoft delivers a flexible, custom time tracking solution. For MN DOC, we quickly developed a barcode-based system where time is logged via scannable ID cards. Supervisors enter data easily through a web portal, and information flows directly into payroll batches for smooth, accurate processing.
Flexible Facility & Work‑Area Management
Our Salesforce-native platform adapts to complex setups like correctional facilities, mapping multiple prisons, units, and job codes precisely. Supervisors get instant visibility into active inmates, open positions, and labor demand—so resource management becomes more efficient across all locations.
Dynamic Work Assignments & Custom Pay Rates
BiznusSoft lets you assign, unassign, or transfer individuals across facilities, work areas, or job codes with ease. Pay rates are fully configurable based on job role, inmate experience, certifications, and other factors—ensuring fair, accurate compensation for your workforce.
Streamlined Time Approval & Payroll Integration
Simplify your payroll process with biweekly timesheet submission and straightforward approvals. Export-ready reports integrate seamlessly with inmate banking and state financial systems—cutting errors and reducing administrative work.
Actionable Reports & Dashboards for Proactive Management
In the Minnesota DOC example, supervisors and finance teams could quickly pull up key data—active inmates by facility, job assignments, missing pay rates, timesheet statuses, and total pay. This visibility helped them make informed decisions faster and with more confidence.

Built on Salesforce, it integrates easily with your existing systems—whether you use our full hire-to-retire solution or just specific modules—so your data flows smoothly, and critical finance, payroll, and labor cost metrics are always at your fingertips.
