Attendance
Every punch says where it happened.
Draw the office areas on a map, choose the rule, and let people clock in from the app, the portal or the reader. HR decides who may use which. The place stays on the punch forever.
Home / Attendance
01
Three modes, one honest picture.
- aGeo-fencing: off, advisory, or required. The app tells the person how far they are from the office before they tap, and the server judges the punch with the same arithmetic.
- bThe office network rule: restrict portal or app punches to your IP ranges, so a punch from home is recorded as one.
- cPer-person channels: app only, portal only, both, or the biometric reader alone, set on the employee record by HR.
- dA selfie when the policy asks, uploaded first so a failed photo never costs anyone their clock-in.
- eRegularisation that excuses lateness rather than erasing it, so the punctuality picture stays true.
02
Where the team is, and how the month is going.
Each direct report's last known place with how long ago, today's status, and the day as a trail on the map. The app reports its position while it is open and every punch adds a point; nothing is sent from the background.
- aPunctuality this month: on time, late arrivals, absent, not marked, per person and for the team.
- bApprovals in one place: leave, regularisation, on-duty and work-from-home, with the real punch beside the request.
- cReports that export: the day, the week, the month, as a sheet the manager can send.
03
Shifts, rosters, and the day itself.
Time
Shifts and rosters
- General, rotating and night shifts with grace and the day boundary
- Rosters by week, per location, published to the app
- Overtime and comp-off with the ledger behind them
- Holiday calendars per location, optional holidays
Devices
Readers, kiosks, the log
- Biometric readers feeding the same punch log
- A kiosk mode for a shared tablet at the gate
- Every punch logged, accepted or refused, with its reason
- The month locked once payroll is processed
The employee
What the person sees
- The month as a calendar, with exceptions and the reason for each
- Their own punctuality: late days, average in and out, the streak
- Requests raised from the exception, not from a blank form
- Reminders when they have not clocked in
