Attendance

The Attendance page surfaces day-by-day attendance records for every tracked employee, computed from the BEAK SWA agent's activity stream. Each row represents one employee on one date with the first and last captured activity, total active hours, and total idle hours. KPI tiles summarize the period at a glance.

Filters​

The filter bar at the top of the page lets you narrow the dataset before any KPIs or rows are computed. Available filters:

  • Date Range — Restrict records to a specific date window. Default is the last 7 days.
  • Department — Limit to one or more departments.
  • Employee — Filter to a specific employee.
  • Search — Free-text search across employee name and email.

A reset icon at the right edge of the filter bar clears every selection in one click. Changing any filter triggers a fresh data fetch — KPIs and the records table update together. The records table also carries its own search box for narrowing within the loaded set.

KPI Tiles​

Four tiles surface the period-level summary, each tied to the current filter selection:

  • Employees Tracked — Distinct employees with at least one attendance record in the period
  • Avg Active Hours — Average active hours per employee per day across the filtered set
  • Avg Idle Hours — Average idle hours per employee per day
  • Avg Work Span — Average hours between first and last activity per employee per day

Each tile may show a percentage change against the previous matching period; the trend indicator turns green for improvement and red for decline.

Attendance Records​

The records table lists one row per employee per day, with these columns:

ColumnDescription
EmployeeFull name
EmailEmployee email (corporate account)
DateThe attendance date in YYYY-MM-DD form
First ActivityTimestamp of the first captured activity that day (- if none)
Last ActivityTimestamp of the last captured activity that day
Active HoursTotal active hours that day, rendered in green
Idle HoursTotal idle hours that day, rendered in yellow

The table is searchable, paginated (15 rows per page), and exportable. Click any column header to sort.

Export​

When the records table has at least one row, an Export button appears in the page header. Clicking it downloads the current filtered result set as an Excel file (attendance-records.xlsx) with the same seven columns as the table — useful for ad-hoc HR reports or audit submissions.

Note: Export honours the active filter — only rows visible in the current selection are written to the file.

Best Practices​

  • Use the date range filter to scope to a single sprint, pay period, or compliance window — the KPIs only become meaningful against a consistent time frame.
  • A large gap between First Activity and Last Activity with low Active Hours usually indicates a long lunch break or extended idle — pair it with Behaviour Analytics to investigate.
  • For payroll or shift-compliance use cases, export the data and reconcile against the source HRMS — Attendance is observational, not the system of record.
  • Empty First Activity / Last Activity cells mean the agent did not run on that device that day — check Agent Installation for the device's recent status.
