Attendance points

You can assign attendance points to attendance codes to evaluate employees. If you choose, Time and Attendance totals these points on attendance reports for the year.

Example

River Bend Hospital decides that they need to track the absenteeism of employees when they are sick or tardy. To do so, they create the following Attendance Codes.

Attendance Code Points Pay Code
SC—Sick, Employee phoned in 1 SIK
SK—Sick, Employee did not phone in 2 SIK
TA—Tardy 1.5

Because the SC and SK attendance codes have been tied to the SIK pay code, if an employee's time record has the attendance code of SC or SK, the application processes a SIK pay code as it processes the time record.

River Bend Hospital enters the tardy records manually because they have not tied the attendance code to a pay code.

The accumulated points for sick and tardy hours appear on the year report for each employee. The report can also be run for a group of employees.
