Hi,
for now in Attendace module I only see two buttons: plain Check-IN and Check-OUT just for "today".
With only these two options avaliable this module functionality is heavliy reduced.
1.
What's missing is the possiblity to allow users to track attendace for past days (for very simple reason - they just forgot to check-in/-out and this would normally result in missing attendace entry for this given day).
Of course such time entry for past days should be approved by manager/admin before it'll be listed in reports - usual approval process just like in other modules (i.e. Leave tracker).
The option to add missing attencance should not be completley moved to admin role as this will result in excessive workload. Users should update their past time - admin/manager should only approve.
2.
To track attendance for past days it would be very helpful to allow users to enter check-in /-out times for the whole past week to speed up the process. (just like it's done in Time Tracker module)
3.
Admin should be able to force users to use only "live" check-in /-out (via buttons), to let users use both, or let users use only "last week" attendace tracking.
4.
Admin should be able to alert user entrys and system calculated break times prior to approval.
GENERAL NOTE:
The user manual should be coupled with examples how fuctions setting will affect the data entered to zoho - this is valid for all modules/settings.
For example I have no idea what is the effect of the setting "Consider Date Of Joining for Leave Report Calculation - Business days or Calendar days" in Leave Tracker on the actual calculations that Zoho system performs in background.
I'd really rather know this before I enroll Zoho to all employees.
Thx!
