Entering Attendance
To enter attendance, click the day heading for the day to enter attendance for within either the timecard or timesheet. As shown below.
Purpose
This topic describes how to manually enter your attendance hours.
There are three main ways of entering attendance:
• Manually - by clicking the day headers in either the Timecard or the Timesheet and entering the times manually.
▪In real-time - by clicking on the Attend button on the home page and clocking in and out in real-time.
▪Card Swiping – by swiping a card against an attendance terminal.
▪By making a timecard correction.
This help topic only describes the first method.
If you are using attendance terminals and swipe cards you may be denied this option as part of Company Policy, and may need to correct swiped attendance by entering Corrections.

• Enter attendance as 24 hour notation. If you enter leading zeroes into the hours (e.g. 0800 instead of 800) then Timemaster will work out the hours and minutes and correctly format as 08:00)
