Exception Rules - Additional Rule Types
Three additional exception rule types extend automated compliance monitoring beyond the rules introduced with the latest version, giving HR Administrators complete oversight of attendance behaviour against scheduled boundaries.
Work on Non-Working Day - flags attendance recorded on a day the employee was not scheduled to work.
Early Arrival - monitors punch-in times against scheduled shift start, with a configurable threshold in minutes.
Late Departure - monitors punch-out times against scheduled shift end, with a configurable threshold in minutes.
Rules are defined within the Attendance module alongside the existing exception rule set, and triggered exceptions surface through the standard Exception Records interface.
Attendance Record Indicators
Visual indicators on attendance records give supervisors and HR Administrators immediate clarity on record integrity, without opening the audit trail.
Edited indicator - displayed on a punch record whose date, time or note has been modified after creation. The indicator reflects post-release edits only.
Rounded-Off indicator - displayed where a punch time has been adjusted by rounding rules, governed by a configurable threshold.
Manual Pay Policy Assignment for Employees
A pay policy can be assigned to an employee manually from the PIM Job tab, giving HR the flexibility to handle cases that fall outside automatic policy allocation.
Attendance Sheet Approval Restrictions for Unpublished Rosters and Unapproved Leaves
Attendance sheet approval can now be restricted when the underlying roster shifts or leave position is not yet finalized, protecting the accuracy of downstream payroll data. .
A configuration option restricts approval of attendance sheets containing unpublished roster shifts.
A corresponding restriction applies where the sheet contains unapproved leave.
Where approval is blocked, the affected dates and the number of impacted attendance sheets are surfaced to the approver.
My Actions Widget for Exceptions
Attendance exceptions awaiting review now appear in the My Actions widget, so pending compliance items are visible on the dashboard rather than requiring users to navigate to the Exception Records screen. Widget content respects the user's permitted scope.
Link Attendance Exceptions with Pay Policies
Exception rules are associated with pay policies, so exception behaviour follows the policy applied to each employee rather than being configured globally.
Export Ability for Exceptions
Exception records can be exported for offline review, reporting and record keeping. Both CSV and XLSX export formats are supported.
Pay Code Type Grouping in Cross-Module Reports
Pay codes can be grouped by pay code type, and those groupings are reflected in cross-module attendance reports - producing cleaner, better organised output for payroll and HR teams.
A dedicated Pay Code Types screen is introduced, with its own menu item and role-based screen permissions.
Pay code type changes are captured in a dedicated audit trail.
Reports display pay codes organised by their assigned type group.
