In July, we enhanced the attendance sheet by adding a function that allows admins to add and remove time records for users’ attendance. This is to help resolve incorrect attendance data in cases where employees have missed clocking. Adding a new time record will create a new clocking entry in the Data Audit List while deleting it will remove the entry. Refer to the sample screenshots below for further details: a. Attendance - Show Popup with 'Manage Time Records' at Edit

b. Attendance - New 'Manage Time Records' Popup Content

c. Device > Data Audit List - New Reporting Channel Icon to Identify Clocking Inserted using 'Manage Time Record'

The ‘Attendance Data Centre’ feature (Device > Terminal > Attendance Data Centre) supports the import of attendance data from other sources (database) into TimeTec Attendance. This caters for attendance data captured by any device, as long as the data is managed in a database. TimeTec service will retrieve data from the database based on the settings provided and import it into the Data Audit List. This month, we are introducing a new reporting channel icon to identify clocking imported from the 'Attendance Data Centre'. a. Home (Admin) - Show New Reporting Channel Icon for 'Attendance Data Centre'

This July, following a customer’s request, we enhanced the leave type settings at Leave Settings > Leave Type. This allows admins to add a restriction on the leave application, whereby users have to apply for leave a specified number of working days in advance of the requested date. For example, if the admin sets this to 3 working days, if an employee wants to apply for leave for the following Monday, they must apply by Wednesday at the latest. Refer to the sample screenshots below for further details: a. Leave Type When enabled, a minimum number of working days before the requested date is required to submit a leave application for this leave type. By default, this setting is disabled.

b. Leave Application – Display Hint Text for User

c. Leave Application – Display Error An error will be displayed when users apply for a date which has passed the minimum required working days.

Next, at the Service Accrual page (Leave Settings > Service Accrual), we added the display of the policy name and user’s joined date column at the assign service accrual to user popup.

At Leave Policy settings, admins are now able to define how the system should assign a user’s leave entitlements for every new calendar year. You will find this under the ‘Upon Renewal’ column and this can also be tailored for each user at the individual User Leave Settings (Allowance tab). There are multiple options for this setting and we have recently added two more options, which are: i. Carry Over Percentage: You can set the carry-over percentage (%) for last year’s leave balance to carry over to the next year. ii. Carry Over Percentage + Full Allowance: You can set the carry-over percentage (%) for last year’s leave balance to the next year and add it to the full allowance for the next year. a. Leave Policy and Leave Wizard – View, Add and Edit

A hint will appear when users hover their mouse at the ‘Upon Renewal’ Column.

As described under the TimeTec Attendance section above, we are introducing a new module, TimeTec HR Analytics. The HR Analytics will also be available for TimeTec Leave subscribers and we are now inviting users to register for a free 60-day trial access.
