Attendance parameters


Since attendance system varies with companies, it is required to manually set attendance parameters to ensure accurate attendance calculation. Attendance parameter setting is a major method that reflects an enterprise’s attendance system.

Click to enter the main interface of [Attendance] - [Attendance parameters]. When the user the first time to use the system, the interface will show the default setting of system parameters, and the user can modify them as required:


Basic setting:

The shortest shift timetable should exceed N minutes: The working duration must be ≥N+1 minutes;
The longest shift timetable should not exceed N minutes: The working duration must be <N minutes;
Valid attendance entries should have an interval longer than N minutes: When there are repeated records, valid records will be those nearest to the check-in/ check-out time, and must be ≥N+1 minutes from previous records. For example: When this value is set as 5 minutes, and there is a valid record at 8:10, then other records between 8:10-8:15 are invalid, and only the records after 8:15 are valid.
Calculation:
The following check-in and check-out settings are only valid when Must check-in and Must check-out in the time zone setting are set as “Yes”.
Late/ early leave for over N minutes recorded as absence: Late/ early leave for ≥N+1 minutes is recorded as absence;
Work without check-in/check-out entry is recorded as late/ early leave for N minutes: Work without check-in/check-out entry is recorded as late/ early leave for N minutes;
Work without check-in/check-out entry is recorded as absence: Work without check-in/check-out entry is recorded as absence.
Off-duty N minutes later, check-out recorded as overtime: Check-out N+1 minutes after check-out time is recorded as overtime for N+1 minutes (To enable this item, “Delay calculated as overtime” in the time zone must enabled).
Calculation items:
The statistical rules and symbols of expected /actual, late, early leave, exception, absent, overtime, not check-in and not check-out can be set on this page.
Minimum unit: N minutes/ hours/ working days;
Round off control:
Round-down (Cancel): Data smaller than the minimum unit will be cancelled;
Round-off: Data greater than a half of the minimum unit will be carried a minimum unit;
Round-up (Carry): Data smaller than the minimum unit will be carried a minimum unit;

Note: Absence must set minute as the minimum unit for calculation, because when setting “Late/ early leave for over N minutes recorded as absence”, inconsistent units may easily cause the rounded result to be 0.
After setting, click [OK] to save, and the system prompts: Parameters are saved successfully. Click [Cancel] to cancel the operation. The system quits [Attendance parameters] interface and return to the [Exception] interface.
