HR Attendance
Record and review who was present each day, so leave and payroll are based on actual days worked.
Why and when you use it
Salary disputes usually come down to attendance. When attendance is marked daily in Stockivio, you have a clear record of present, absent and leave days for every employee, and payroll at month end does not depend on memory. Usually the office manager or a supervisor marks attendance every morning.
Before you start
- Add your staff (Employees)
- Enter holidays (Holidays) so non-working days are clear
Step by step
- Open HR AttendanceUnder Stockivio ERP, open HR Attendance.
- Choose the datePick today's date. Mark attendance daily; filling a whole month at once leads to mistakes.
- Mark each employeeMark each person as present or absent, or on leave if approved leave is recorded. Save when done.
- Fix mistakes the same weekIf you marked someone wrongly, correct it as soon as you notice, and before payroll is generated.
- Review the monthBefore payroll, review the month for each employee and check for days left unmarked.
- Use it with leaveApproved leave from HR Leave should match the attendance; a day cannot be both present and on leave.
Worked example
At Sharma Traders, Pooja the accountant marks attendance each morning at 10 am. In November 2026 there are 24 working days after Sundays and the two Diwali holidays.
- Pooja opens HR Attendance on 3 Nov 2026 and marks all six staff present; saves.
- On 10 Nov 2026, godown helper Suresh does not come in; she marks him absent.
- On 20 Nov 2026 Imran is on approved leave from HR Leave; she checks that attendance shows leave for him.
- On 30 Nov 2026 she reviews the month and finds no unmarked days.
Result: November attendance is complete: Suresh has 23 days present and 1 absent, Imran has 23 present and 1 on leave. Payroll can now be generated with the right deductions.
💡 Tips
- Mark attendance at the same time every day so it becomes a habit.
- Agree a rule for late arrival and half days with staff and apply it the same way for everyone.
- For salesmen, compare with Today's Beat and Live Tracking if attendance is ever disputed.
⚠️ Common mistakes
- Marking a whole month at once on the last day.
- Generating payroll before attendance corrections are saved.
