An Attendance/Production Type is used to record the attendance and production data. Based on the various components (Pay head), you may need to define multiple attendance / production types. Examples for attendance types are days present or absent and for production based types are hours worked, number of pieces produced.
An Attendance/Production Type is associated with a pay head in an employee’s pay structure. Attendance/Production Types may also be defined in hierarchical groups whereby Attendance Types having a common Unit are combined under logical groups. e.g. Present Days can have Present and Leave with Pay as sub-groups.
The Attendance/Production Type may be:
Attendance/Leave with Pay: should be used to record the positive attendance and leave with pay (For example: Present, Sick Leave etc.)
Leave without Pay: should be used to record negative attendance (For example: Absent, Leave Without Pay etc.)
Production type: should be used to record the Production details (For example: Piece Production, Overtime Hours, and so on)
User Defined Calendar Type: should be used to create User Defined Calendar which can be later used to specify the variable number of days for each month. For example: 25 days in January, 24 days in February, 26 days in March and so on
