See who is in today, and fix a missed punch

Attendance is not typed in at the end of the month. It is derived from punches, one day at a time, and this screen is where a manager reads that day and corrects it when somebody forgot.

You need

• hr.attendance.read
• hr.attendance.update

Steps

1. Open Attendance. It opens on Today, one row per active employee for whatever is in the Day box — which starts on today, in your own browser.
2. The tiles across the top count Clocked in, On break, Clocked out, Not in, Late, Exceptions and On leave. Each row then shows Clocked in, Clocked out and Worked.
3. Click a row to open that person’s punches for the day. Every punch shows its Time and its Source — Time clock, App or By hand.
4. Somebody forgot to clock in: press Add punch, choose Clock in or Clock out, give Time of the punch and a Reason. The reason is required, and the punch is then marked By hand for ever.
5. A punch at the wrong time is corrected, never edited: press Correct. The original stays on record; a new entry supersedes it. Use Void for one that should never have happened, and a punch already corrected refuses a second go: That punch has already been corrected. Correct the correction instead.
6. Late and Over roster are measured against the shift rostered for that day, so they are blank where none is: No shift is rostered on this day, so lateness and overtime are not measured.
7. History is the same records over a longer range, with Date range to widen it. Export CSV writes that range to a file and needs a permission of its own — a board anybody may read is not a file of everybody’s hours.

Hours recorded here carry no money. Nothing on this screen is a rate, a wage or a cost; pay is worked out in the pay run, from the pay record on the person.
