Attendance & leave

Attendance and leave that keep themselves right

Import your biometric sheet as it is, let leave deduct itself, and give every request a clear route — so payroll starts from numbers you can trust.

Attendance

Bring attendance in the way you already have it

No need to change devices or habits — SetuWork reads what your machine exports.

  • Biometric sheet import — the day-per-column export, matched to employees and checked cell by cell.
  • Your attendance codes — P, A, HD, PL, CL, WFH — whatever your company uses, each linked to paid or unpaid.
  • Corrections with a reason — every change asks why, and if payroll already ran you choose how to handle it.
  • Self-service clock-in Add-on — several sessions a day, with location and hours worked.

Balances that never need fixing by hand

Leave requests follow each employee's approval route and balances update themselves.

  • Your leave types — yearly allocations, extra leave grants and unlimited types like leave without pay.
  • Automatic deduction — from approved requests and from imported attendance, never twice for the same day.
  • Team overlap — see who else on the team is off before approving.
  • Comp-off Add-on — weekend and holiday work earns a day back, with the expiry you set.

Questions

Attendance & leave — common questions

Can I import attendance from my biometric machine?

Yes. Upload the device's Excel export as it is — including the one-row-per-employee, one-column-per-day sheet most machines produce. Rows are matched to employees by ID, email, mobile or name, and every cell is checked before anything is saved.

Is leave deducted automatically?

Yes. Approved leave requests come off the balance, and so do leave days found in an imported attendance sheet (half days as half). A day already covered by an approved request is never counted twice, and deleting an import refunds the leave it deducted.

Can employees clock in from their phone?

Yes, with the clock-in add-on. Employees clock in and out from the browser, several times a day if needed, with location recorded, and see their hours worked.

Do you support comp-off for weekend or holiday work?

Yes. Working on a weekend or holiday earns a comp-off day, requested and approved through the same approval route as leave, with an expiry period you choose.

Can we define our own leave types and codes?

Yes — your own leave types and yearly allocations (including unlimited types such as leave without pay) and your own attendance codes such as P, PL, CL, SL, HD or WFH.
