Attendance Application is request to update timesheet record by staff in Employee Portal. When staff found abnormal cases in timesheet and he has a reason to correct this, he can submit an Attendance Application. Once approved, the timesheet record will be updated and the abnormal case will be gone.
| Abnormal Case | What will happen once approved |
|---|---|
| Late In | Change In Time to standard in time |
| Early Out | Change Out Time to standard out time |
| Overtime | Entitle for Compensation Leave or approve for overtimepay |
| Miss Punch/Absent | Update the missing time to standard time |
When both Attendance Application and Leave Entry will impact Timesheet calculation, they are best used in different cases:
| Comparing | Attendance Application | Leave Entry |
|---|---|---|
| Used when... | To fix an abnormal Timesheet record, usually in the past. | To notify change of working hour, usually in the future. |
| Effects | Update attendance time in Timesheet directly. | Create a Leave Entry record. Standard working hours is modified. |
| Example, on a work day from 09:00 to 18:00, a staff has out time at 16:00, and thus early out of 2 hours | Actual Out Time is updated to 18:00, removing the early out hours. | With presence of the leave entry, Standard working hours is updated to 09:00 to 16:00. Also removing the early out hours. |
| Link with Leave Type? | No. Change is limited to Timesheet. | Yes. Will result in change of leave balance. |
| Visibility in Employee Portal | Same as Timesheet and limited to staff himself and approvers | Apart from staff and approvers, leave records are also available in Group Calendar |
