<p>The objective of this functionality is to calculate attendance based on time stamps.&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>If the attendance machine is integrated with THIMS, then the timestamps will be directly loaded into THIMS from the attendance machine software. If it is not integrated then, you need to download time punching data from attendace software and upload into this software. The data needs to be in following format</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Emp ID.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Date.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Time</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>1&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 2023-01-01&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 07:02:05</p>

<p>2&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 2023-01-01&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 07:03:00</p>

<p>1&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; 2023-01-01.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;14:45:12</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>You need to upload data only once but you can do calculation for same period multiple times. There is also an option to calculate attendance only for a specific employee if there is some correction for the employee and needed to calculate again for that employee.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>While calculating the attendance system will check the shift and accordingly conclude whether the time is an in time or out time. For day shift the first recorded time for the employee for a given date will be considered as in time and last recorded time for the employee in that date will be considered as out time. For night shifts, the last recorded time for the given date will be treated as in time and first recorded time on the next day will be treated as out time.&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>The calculation based on the above logic will be 99% accurate but in some cases one needs to review and make corrections if required.&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Employees&#39; attendance will be calculated as below</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>The attendance for a given date will be marked</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>1. Present: if employee is present for the shift duration (with a margin of lapse time allowed)</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>2. Hlaf day: if the employee present for duration less then shift duration but more than half of the shift duration</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>3. Absent: if the employee&#39;s time punching is not found for the given date or present for the duration less than half of the shift duration</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>4. Leave: If the employee&#39;s time punching is not found for the date but has applied for leave for that date and the leave is approved. Here actual leave type will be considered. For example if employee has taken CL then CL will be displayed and if SL then SL will be displayed.&nbsp;</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>5. HO: Will be marked as holiday if the time punching is not found for the date but it is a standard holiday or optional holiday which is requested and aprroved</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>6. WO: Will be marked as Weely Off, if the time punching is not found for the date but is scheduled weekly off for the employee at the time of shift scheduling</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>Note</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>a. Employee will be able to see their calculated attendance using a separate option - &#39;Attendance Check&#39; and apply for time correction or leave.</p>

<p>b. If employee has worked more than shift duration / out side shift then those many hours are shown as shioft out hours based on which employee can apply for comp. off.&nbsp; and once approve, he/she can take comp off against those extra hours.&nbsp;</p>
