Record attendance, shifts, and leave
Available to
Employee, Department Manager, HR Officer, and authorised Workforce Scheduler.Explain the difference between a planned shift, a clocked attendance, approved leave, and an actual clinical handover. Each has a different purpose. Where Planning, Attendances, and Time Off are configured together, the workforce team should resolve conflicts before they become payroll inputs.
Steps
- Publish the approved work schedule or roster through the organisation’s workforce process.
- Record check-in and check-out through the approved attendance method; correct a missed record through manager review rather than informal editing.
- Submit leave under the relevant leave type and wait for the configured approval route.
- Review attendance exceptions, missing hours, and approved time off against the working schedule.
- Escalate a short-notice clinical staffing gap through the operational staffing procedure; an attendance record alone does not evidence a safe nurse-to-patient or clinician-to-patient ratio.
