Deep attendance policy
Configure week-offs, thresholds, grace, late consequences, shortfall, swipe modes, punch rounding and work-date handling.
Pay & time · Attendance that closes cleanly
Turn raw punches into payroll-ready attendance.
Apply configurable rules to punches, shifts and work patterns, explain why each day resolved as it did, and close exceptions before they become payroll corrections.

Policy preview availableWhy this matters to the Head of HR
Attendance problems become payroll problems when exceptions remain invisible. duoHR gives HR leaders policy control and line managers clear accountability.
Use this page as a product-evaluation path: start with the operating problem, inspect the representative interaction, then verify the exact policy and output in the live product.
Time & Attendance capabilities
Designed around the full operating workflow.
Configure the module around your structures, policies, ownership and approval model—not a generic process diagram.
Location-aware capture
Support web or mobile capture, geo-fence enforcement, batch upload, device registry and SFTP ingestion.
Shift and roster context
Handle fixed, flexible, rotational and midnight-crossing shifts with employee or group assignments.
Exception and regularisation
Apply reason codes, limits, cut-offs and approval routes to missing punches and corrections.
Decision ledger
Show why a day became present, late, half-day, absent or loss-of-pay instead of exposing only the result.
Preview and reprocess
Simulate the resolved policy for an employee and date, then reprocess attendance after an authorised correction.
Connected operating workflow
Follow the action from policy to owner to downstream result.
The exact screens differ by module, but the operating principle remains the same: the applicable rule, current owner, status, effective date and history stay visible.
Fewer unexplained attendance disputes Clearer manager closure More consistent shift policy

Product proof and boundaries
Evaluate the operating behaviour—not only the feature name.
These examples are illustrative product patterns grounded in the supported product material. Use the live product to validate the exact screen, policy and output required for your organisation.

Import or capture punches
Use a representative employee, workforce group and effective date. Follow the transaction through owner, status and downstream impact.
Current boundary
Scope honestly before committing.
Device data can be consumed, but biometric matching, facial recognition and buddy-punch detection are not presented as native capabilities.
A working view, not a static report
Give the team clear status and exception signals.
The example measures below are illustrative. Definitions and thresholds should be configured around the operating cadence and evidence your team uses.

Questions about implementation
Bring this context into the demo Evaluate Time & Attendance in your policy context.
Use your actual workforce groups, approval paths and edge cases during product evaluation.
Can duoHR consume biometric-device data?
Yes, supported source files or integrations can feed attendance data into duoHR. The platform does not currently claim to perform facial recognition or biometric matching itself.
Can a geo-fence block an attendance punch?
The supplied product material describes both warn and reject enforcement, configurable for the relevant workforce and location policy.
