What this screen is for
This is where attendance is viewed and corrected. Six figures summarise the period — total employees, present with a rate, absent with a rate, half days, on leave and late arrivals — and filters narrow the view further. A bulk marking option covers a whole date at once, and a print action opens the sheet for the period and filters currently on screen.
When a period contains days whose scans cannot be read with confidence — a missing punch, or one counted twice — a banner says how many and points you at the days concerned. Nothing is corrected automatically; a person decides what happened on those days.
Why it matters
Pay, statutory registers and leave balances all read from this record, so a day left unmarked or wrongly read follows through into the payroll run.
What you see on this screen
Six cards head the page: Employees, Present with its rate, Absent with its rate, Half Day, On Leave and Late Arrivals.
Below the period controls, attendance is drawn as a grid rather than a list:
- The first column, which stays put as you scroll sideways, is the Employee — photo or initials and name, opening their record in a new tab.
- Then one column per day in the period, headed with the weekday and the date. Today is highlighted, weekends are shaded.
- The last column is the Total for that person across the period.
Each cell is coloured by what happened that day, and the legend along the top names the colours: Present, Absent, Half Day, On Leave, Holiday, and a ringed marker for a late arrival.
Filters and actions
- Filters — opens Search (name or code), Department, Status and Reset.
- Weekly / Monthly — how much of the calendar the grid covers.
- The arrows and Today — move between periods.
- Print — opens the sheet for the period and filters on screen, in the browser's PDF viewer, so Print and Save are both one click away.
- Bulk Mark — marks a whole date at once.
- Clicking a cell opens that day, where status, check-in and check-out times, breaks, the raw punches behind it and a remark can all be set.
Status values
- Present — a full working day.
- Absent — did not attend.
- Half Day — part of the day worked.
- On Leave — away on approved leave.
- Holiday — a company or public holiday.
