Attendance Exceptions

Every cardholder, its parent department, division, or organization may have a custom work shift assigned to it. However, even when a certain cardholder has a "generic" working shift shared between many, it's important to keep track of his personal attendance events, such as:

  • Vacations
  • Sick days
  • Days off
  • Out-of-order workdays
  • And other

Such personal events are called attendance exceptions. Every cardholder has a personal Attendance Exceptions table allowing system operators to view and modify information about his exceptional attendance events.

Attendance Exception Properties

Most fields of the Attendance Exceptions table match ones from the Shift Properties. There are two additional fields:

  • Category (sick, day off, vacation, workday, or other)
  • Comment

Processing Attendance Exceptions

Attendance exceptions have higher priority than shifts. This means that if a cardholder has a personal exception for a certain day, this exception's properties are used to track his attendance for this day.

Exception's category and comment are shown in many attendance reports.
