Overview

An allocations report allows you to issue a report on allocated punches irrespective of whether the allocations are sent to payroll or not. You can run the report for up to five allocation types: basic hours, leave entitlements, leave requests, pay items, and overtime.

This report can include allocated punches for sub-contracted employees, company employees, or both. Running this report on sub-contracted employees in your system helps you reconcile contractors' invoices sent to you for the work done by the sub-contracted employees.

In the report, you will find a Transferred column that indicates whether the attendance data has been sent to payroll (Yes) or not (No).


Generating an Allocation Report:

  1. Go to Attendance > Reporting > Allocations Report.

  2. Fill in the fields you need from Options, Allocation Type, Approval State and Grouping.

  3. Click on Generate to generate the report.
