How do you make a from filled out ties to an employee file?
I'm trying to make it so employees can upload their own files through a form since a lot of our employees work nationwide at home. How can I make it so if they fill out a new form that I created, that it will tie to their employee account automatically? I need employees to fill out multiple forms which tie to their employee account.

If no expiry date is set, will monthly leave accrual keep building year after year?
We would like to setup a leave system that an employee accrues vacation days each month up to a certain amount a year ex. 10 a year. At the end of each calendar year, only 5 days can roll over. If we do not set an expiry date, but have rollover enabled and set to 5 days, will the vacation days reset at the end of each calendar year, or will they keep accumulating?
Import timesheet not working
Hi, I'm trying to mass-update attendance and time tracker. Neither is working. I have tried all sorts of changes to the .xls file, I even converted to .csv but still no joy. In fact, it seems like there is a glitch as I don't get an error message. The interface tells me I'm importing the correct number of files, then I map the input and press submit only to get returned to the upload page which suspiciously still contains the file I've attemtped to upload. Things that might help your response:
Attendance reset
We did the Trial for a while before upgrading, we now have several employees with 100+ days of "Absent"s. Now that we have attendance tracker, is there a way to reset this for everyone? I want to either only track attendance from now, or reset everyone's history to "Present". This is important because it would be too labor intensive to do this manually, and it will screw up future reporting if we don't do it.

Does anybody know if/how to make use of the "import data" fields which People includes as system fields (ie. for 'job title')?

Attendace check-IN and check-OUT for PAST days
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.

Of course such time entry for past days should be approved by manager/admin before it'll

Zoho good for a check-in kiosk?
Hi all, I have a student event with 200 kids where I need my five staff to check the kids in and modify two fields of data. All kids must arrive and be checked in during a 30 minute window.

Last year we had paper check-in lists and it was chaos! Is Zoho a good option for this?
