Absence Manager
Automated Attendance & Absence Monitoring
Automatically detect unexcused absences and generate leave records when employees don't check in. A daily CRON monitors attendance and creates traceable absence records linked to your payroll workflow.
What We're Solving
----------------
Daily Absence Detection
A scheduled CRON job runs every day and checks if each employee marked as "Required to mark attendance" actually checked in. If not, an absence record is automatically created with the type "Pending determination" (PPD).
Smart Day-Off & Holiday Skipping
The system respects your Work Schedule. It automatically skips weekly rest days (DSO, marked as WORKD) and Public Holidays (Global Time Off) configured on the Resource Calendar. No false positives.
Leave ↔ Attendance Sync
When a leave is approved, the system automatically generates attendance records for each day of the period, linking them to the leave. When refused, the linked attendances are cleaned up automatically.
Per-Employee Control
Not every employee needs attendance monitoring. A simple boolean checkbox on the employee form lets HR decide who is subject to the daily absence check. Freelancers, managers, or contractors can be easily excluded.
Setup & User Manual
Step-by-Step implementation
1. Configuration Guide
Get started in 3 simple steps:
- Go to Employees > Employee Form.
- In the Private Information tab, enable "Required to mark attendance?".
- Ensure the employee has a Work Schedule with proper working hours.
- Mark weekly rest days with the "Days off" (WORKD) work entry type on the schedule.
2. Operating Manual (Workflow)
How the system behaves for the end-user:
Auto-Generated Absences
Every morning, the CRON detects who didn't show up. Missing employees get a "Pending determination" leave auto-created in state To Approve. HR can then classify the absence type.
Approval Creates Attendance
When an absence is approved and "Report in attendance?" is checked, the system creates linked hr.attendance records for each day, making the absence visible in attendance reports.
Refusal Cleans Up
If a leave is refused, all linked attendance records are automatically deleted, keeping your attendance data clean and consistent.
Full Traceability
Attendance records show the Leave Type column in both list and form views. Changes to the leave type automatically propagate to linked attendances.
Global Ready | Multi-Language Support

QA / User Testing Scenarios
Enterprise Validation Plan
Scenario 1: Automatic Absence Creation
- Go to Employees > Employee Form. Enable "Required to mark attendance?".
- Ensure the employee has a Work Schedule with working hours for today.
- Do NOT create any attendance for this employee today.
- Run the CRON "Absence Monitor" manually (Settings > Technical > Scheduled Actions).
- Result: A leave of type "Pending determination" (PPD) MUST be created for this employee.
Scenario 2: Day-Off & Holiday Skipping
- On the employee's Work Schedule, set Sunday's work entry type to "Days off" (WORKD).
- Add a Public Holiday for today on the calendar.
- Run the CRON.
- Result: No absence MUST be created for days off or public holidays.
Scenario 3: Approval Generates Attendance
- Create a leave request for an employee with "Report in attendance?" checked.
- Approve the leave.
- Result: Attendance records MUST be created for each day of the leave period, visible in Attendance > List view with the Leave Type column.
Scenario 4: Refusal Cleans Attendance
- Approve a leave that has "Report in attendance?" checked.
- Verify attendance records were created.
- Now Refuse the leave.
- Result: All linked attendance records MUST be deleted.
FAQ & Troubleshooting
Common Resolutions
Absence not created for an employee?
Reason: The employee may not have the "Required to mark attendance?" checkbox enabled, or the day may be a rest day/public holiday.
Fix: Check the employee form and the work schedule configuration.
CRON doesn't seem to be running?
Reason: The Scheduled Action may be inactive or its next execution date may be in the future.
Fix: Go to Settings > Technical > Scheduled Actions, find "Absence Monitor", ensure it is active, and check the next execution date.
Attendance records not created after approval?
Reason: The "Report in attendance?" field may be unchecked on the leave form.
Fix: Ensure the checkbox is enabled before approving. Auto-generated CRON absences have this field set to False by default.
Is this compatible with 2-week calendars?
Answer: Yes!
Detail: The CRON automatically detects whether the current week is odd or even and checks the correct week's schedule accordingly.
