Key takeaways
- Breaks and meetings left open are also closed at local midnight.
- Sessions open past local midnight are closed automatically, and administrators are notified.
- A device silent for two minutes shows as offline, and an alert follows after over 2 hours while punched in.
Attendance data is only as good as its worst day. Laptops close, home internet drops and people forget to punch out. Attendance tracking software for remote teams has to handle these cases without anyone editing records by hand, and distributed team attendance tracking only works if the odd day does not corrupt the weekly total.
Forgotten punch-outs
When a session is still open past local midnight, it is closed automatically and an Employee auto punched out notification is raised for administrators. A forgotten punch-out never becomes an inflated timesheet. Local midnight follows your organization's timezone, which you set in Preferences.
Breaks and meetings left open
Open breaks and meetings are closed at local midnight too, so one forgotten click does not carry into the next day.
Lost connections and quiet devices
If a computer loses its connection, the agent queues events and syncs them when it can. A device that stops responding for two minutes shows as offline, and administrators are notified if it stays silent for over 2 hours while its employee is punched in.
A simple routine
Check the Notifications bell for auto punch-outs and silent devices.
Talk to the employee if a pattern repeats; it may be a setup problem rather than a habit.
Use the Devices page to check agent version and last seen time.
