Time and Attendance tracks time and attendance figures, calculate labor variance reports, and interface with your payroll system. Time and Attendance is installed with an interface to an electronic UniFocus Time Clock. Employees clock in/out before they report to and leave work. This information is polled and imported into Time & Attendance. Once the data is imported from the clock, you have access to it in many forms. In addition to providing information on actual hours and labor analysis, Time & Attendance serves as a human resource module that contains employment data for all your employees. You can also correct shifts that have errors, view and edit all shifts, modify other earnings for all employees, allocate payroll between properties (if appropriate), and print reports.
Time & Attendance is designed to prevent you from modifying history. This restricts you from changing data outside the current pay period. The only exception to this is the polling process. If your pay period ends on the 5th and you poll your clock on the 7th you will retrieve punches from the clock for two pay periods. The program is designed to hold the punches for the new pay period until you close the old one and set the dates to the new one. You will NOT lose those punches; they just will not be viewable until the pay period is closed.
The following tasks are part of the Time and Attendance system:
- Review Pay Period
- Who's In-Out
- Employee Requests
- Tip Pools
- Benefits
- Earnings Wizard
- Holiday Pay
- Manage Time Clocks
