Attendance Software is a business application which captures employee attendance data from different locations, enables managers to monitor employee availability in real-time, assigns employees to different shift schedules and summarizes the employee attendance data to provide a periodical input to the payroll system. The Attendance Software also enables employees to view their own attendance, overtime, shift schedules, holidays, weekly offs and make requests to their managers to correct attendance when necessary.
The purpose of an attendance system is to ensure that employees are reporting to work on time, leaving work as per plan, and spending their time at the sites where they are supposed to be. An attendance system enables managers to monitor real-time employee availability, shift wise employee strength, tardiness, and so on.
