Managing Attendance and Shifts

This guide walks you through navigating the Attendance module, creating shifts, and accessing the mark attendance form in Blank HR.

Prerequisites

  • You have access to the Attendance module in your Blank HR account
1

Open the Attendance dashboard

Navigate to Dashboard > Attendance. The Attendance overview page will load, confirming you are in the correct module.
2

Go to Shift Management

From the Attendance section, navigate to Dashboard > Attendance > Shifts. You will see a list of all configured shifts for your organization.
3

Open the Add Shift dialog

On the Shifts page, click the Add Shift button to open the shift creation dialog.
4

Enter shift details

Fill in the following fields in the dialog:
  • Name — Enter a descriptive name for the shift (for example, Night Shift).
  • Start Time — Enter the time the shift begins (for example, 22:00).
  • End Time — Enter the time the shift ends (for example, 06:00).
5

Save the shift

Once all fields are filled in, confirm and save the shift. The new shift will appear in your Shifts list.
6

Access the Mark Attendance form

To record attendance, navigate to Dashboard > Attendance > Mark. The mark attendance form will load, ready for you to log attendance entries.
The Start Time and End Time fields use 24-hour format (HH:MM). For example, 10:00 PM is entered as 22:00 and 6:00 AM is entered as 06:00.
If your shift spans midnight (the End Time is earlier than the Start Time, such as 22:00 to 06:00), Blank HR will automatically treat it as an overnight shift.
