Employee attendance has always been a hot topic that business owners may care about. Through attendance data, you can get a general understanding of the basic performance of employees. At the same time, attendance is also an important standard for salary base. For some companies, matters such as production and customer support require timely employee attendance. Low attendance rate is closely related to low employee success rate. The attendance dashboard & reporting system can strongly help you.

Your Company may not Need a Time and Attendance Machine Anymore!

The times are developing rapidly, and many enterprises still use punch-card machines to solve attendance problems. They think they can solve enterprise attendance problems by attendance machines, and there is no need to spend money to buy attendance management software.

Obviously, they don’t understand the huge burden reduction effect of the automatic attendance reporting system on the enterprise, or their enterprise scale is too small and can be easily managed only by manual attendance, so it is not time to rely on high technology.

However, how does the attendance report and dashboard improve the efficiency of the enterprise’s attendance management? You will find the answer in this article.

The traditional attendance method is to use the attendance machine for attendance, including IC cards, fingerprints, etc. However, the attendance method is relatively simple, especially for field staff (those who often work outside office). Field staff does not have a fixed workplace, even their working hours are not fixed. As a result, companies cannot track the whereabouts of field employees. To fix these problems, the attendance management system can not only provide a variety of attendance methods, but also support GPS positioning for field staff, and the field staff can complete the punch card through the mobile phone. With attendance dashboards, companies can display the overall attendance over the company and diagnose the problems, which greatly improves the efficiency of attendance.

So how to build a complete intelligent time and attendance reporting system? Here we use FineReport as an example.

The attendance reporting system can synchronize the attendance data of each terminal of the attendance machine and mobile phone. The system will intelligently determine whether the employee’s punch time is normal or late, leaving early or leaving the office through the set time.

Based on these data, the system can automatically calculate the employee’s leave and normal working hours. If there is no automatic attendance reporting, then the human resources department will waste a lot of manpower and time to make statistics and calculations, resulting in many mistakes.
In addition, if the employee has abnormal attendance, the employee can also initiate an appeal in the attendance system, and the relevant personnel of the human resources department can also handle the appeal on the system, which is very convenient.

Attendance Report and Salary Calculation Automation

When there is no attendance reporting system, the attendance data needs to be manually counted, and the personnel needs to export the data of each attendance machine and then calculate them together. The time and attendance system built by FineReport can get through all the data of the time and attendance machine, and at the same time automatically generate the time and attendance report without manual statistics, which greatly improves the efficiency of personnel.
