Set Attendance Process Status - A summary of the activity

An attendance process refers to the automatic processing of attendance details for all the employees of a specific attendance, example Regular attendance, to compute payroll for a specific process period. The mode of entry of attendance must be either Formula based or ARS.

A unique session ID is generated during the “Process Attendance” activity, which indicates the readiness of the attendance details under the specified payroll/payset for payroll processing.

Normally, you abort the attendance process when you don’t anticipate the output to be as desired. For example, after initiating an attendance process, you find that certain attendance entries have not been recorded, or certain leave entries have not been entered.
