The practical thinking behind how monthly attendance periods work

How Monthly Attendance Periods Work is easier to understand when the organisation first separates the worker action from the later management review. The worker should review recorded hours and flag anything that appears incomplete.

Authorised managers can then use booked attendance, calculated durations and monthly working periods to check the underlying attendance periods before using a monthly total. A short test with the real team is worthwhile before the process becomes part of everyday operations.

Timesheets and working hours still needs sensible review. Timesheets and exports must be checked before they are used outside Vanta Workforce.
