What is "Attendance" user service?

The "Attendance" user service refers to the Attendance tab accessed through the left bar in Zoho People. It displays all the necessary attendance service-related information such as attendance summary, overtime, shift, etc. It allows users to raise attendance-related requests, check-in and more. This space is intended for all users and is accessible to all roles (team members, managers, and even administrators).

How to navigate to user service?
Simply click on the Attendance icon in the left bar in Zoho People.

What can employees do here?

  1. View Attendance Summary (with switchable views) and days or hours scale, raise requests, export, and view audit history.
  2. Switch to Overtime, Regularization, On Duty, and Hourly Permission, for viewing raised requests or to raise new requests.
  3. View shift information and assign Shift (if applicable) from the Shift tab.

Break Management

Log Break

In the Attendance Summary tab, you can view the breaks applicable to you based on your organization’s break policy once you have checked in for the day. You can log manual breaks manually, while others are automatically recorded or logged based on your organization’s break policies.

For kiosk-based check-ins and check-outs, captured images from the past three months will only be available for viewing in the system.
