There may be times when employees clock in or out without being assigned to a shift. With this Attendance module feature, Admins can easily connect those attendance records to the right shift.

💡Scenario: Imagine you’re running a cafĂ©, and one of your baristas, Alex, clocks in early to help with the morning rush, but he wasn’t yet assigned to a shift in the system. Later, you noticed that his attendance record doesn’t match any shift. With the Attendance module, you can quickly view and link Alex’s clock-in and clock-out times to the correct shift, ensuring his hours are tracked properly and payroll stays accurate.


How to Link Attendance to a Shift

  1. Go to the side navigation menu > Open the Attendance module.

  2. Identify the attendance records that are not yet linked to any shift which will be flagged out as “Assign Shift” under the ‘Expected Work Hour’ column.

  3. Click Assign Shift.

  4. You will be redirected to a page where you can either assign the attendance to an existing shift or create a new one.

    1. Create new shift: You can either set up a new shift for the staff or select one from the pre-filled shift templates, and it will be automatically linked or assigned.

    2. Assign to existing shift: You can assign the attendance to one of the employee’s available shifts that hasn’t been assigned yet.

  5. Once the appropriate shift is selected or created, click Confirm/Create to complete the process.


Awesome! You now know how to link attendance to a shift and keep everything perfectly aligned.
