What's New in Alpacca
1.5.0
October 11, 2026
Approve the hours before payday. When a pay period ends, Time cards shows who's approved and who's left. Open someone's week, check their days and approve. Approving locks nothing: if their hours change afterwards, they show as changed, with the days that moved, and wait for you again. Members never see approvals. See what the hours cost. Turn on labor costs and add each person's pay, by the hour or by the day, with your overtime rules. Time cards and the week you're building show what it costs, and picking who works a shift shows what each person would add. Only owners and admins see pay. It's an estimate; whoever runs payroll still does. Reports: who was late, left early or didn't come; labor cost person by person; and who came to your bookings. Export any of them to Excel. Mark who came. Once a booking has started, mark it Came or No-show. Each booking page shows the month so far by service, from your own prices. Alpacca doesn't take payments. On an iPad, Alpacca has a sidebar with everything in it, lists open as tables, and clients, vendors and members open with a cleaner header. The demo has six weeks of history now, and a few things to try, like approving last week's hours. Fixes: a second contact picked from your phone no longer keeps the first person's details, a week that has ended no longer shows hours still scheduled, and more accessibility and Spanish fixes.
