How attendance and daily reports work in TracefyHR

Attendance lets your team check in on the web or the mobile app, starting each day with a short plan, and shows you today at a glance. In this short video an employee checks in with a plan for the day, then a manager sees who checked in, opens a daily report, approves a fix request and exports reports to Excel.
