Configure Attendance Settings in SkyTab Workforce

Description: Attendance settings are rules that control how all employees clock in and clock out. 

---

Prerequisite

1. To perform this function, you must have Administrator level permission or Manager level permission with the 'Manage attendance settings' sub-permission enabled.

2. To utilize the "Early clock ins" feature, Breaks must be enabled and configured at Main Menu > Compliance > Breaks.

Navigation

Navigate to Main Menu > Attendance > Settings.

Configure Settings

Early clock ins

Set how early employees are allowed to clock in before their shift starts. Employees that try to clock in earlier than the set threshold will not be allowed.

Unscheduled shifts

Allow employees to clock in for a shift that is not scheduled (i.e. when an employee is required to work on short notice.) Unscheduled shifts are automatically created in the scheduler and are indicated with an 'unscheduled' label.

Break compliance

By default, employees are allowed to clock in early from their break. If you require employees to take their full break, enable “Break compliance." In conjunction with ‘Break’ settings (see link below), additional options are available to prevent early clock-in from either paid or unpaid breaks.

Note: A manager override function exists in SkyTab POS for each of these features, allowing managers to clock in employees at their discretion with these rules enabled.
