Today’s status in iFlow is a functionality that allows you to check in real-time who is at work, who is away on a business trip, who is doing extra hours, etc. You can see all these in one panel. Read this article to learn how to get the most out of this feature.
Today’s status can filter the workplace presence either based on the work schedule (planning) or live attendance. You will choose this depending on how you use the app.
Today’s status based on the work schedule/planning
You will check this option for Today’s status if you use iFlow based on the work schedule. If your employees work on different shifts, you will see in real-time who is at work and who is not at the very hour when you look at this status.
Example:
You have 2 shifts in the company, one of them starts at 08:00 and ends at 16:00 and the second one starts at 17:00 – 01:00. Thus, if the work schedule is completed, when you check Today’s status from the Dashboard panel set to “Attendance by: Work schedule”, the results will be displayed depending on the time you make the check.
If you check at 12:00 – the employees that will be present at work will be the ones with the 08:00 – 16:00 shift.
If you check at 18:00 – the employees that will be present at work will be the ones with the 17:00 – 01:00 shift.
And if you check at 16:30 all employees will be shown as absent.
Once you selected the basis for your workplace presence, you can also select events. If you select “Business trip”, in addition to the classification “today – at work” and “today – absent” you will also have the classification “today – at work, Business trip” and the app will show you the employees who are present at work and have the event Business trip added today.
You can select any event, even those created by you.In this way, you can make your own status.
Today’s status based on live attendance
You will check this option for Today’s status if you use iFlow based on the real-time presence. You’ll see in real time, for the moment when you access the app, who has checked-in at work and who hasn’t.
Today’s status based on Live attendance is updated in real time, even if an employee checked-in at 08:00, if at 11:00 they check-out because they are going on a break, after you refresh the Dashboard panel it will change its status from “today – at work” to “today – absent” until it returns and checks back in.
If you are using real-time presence in iFlow, and your employees have a standard schedule, you can check and easily find the employees that forget to check-in.
For example, if everyone is working from 08:00 to 16:00, and you enter the app to check if everyone checked-in at 13:00 and you see anyone being absent, they most probably forgot to check-in.
Today’s status used by employees
Today’s status can also be used by employees. They can check in real-time if their colleagues are at work. In this way its easier to collaborate.
