Introduction

Accurately tracking employee attendance is critical to maintaining smooth operations within any organisation.

In uKnowva HRMS, administrators have the flexibility to define and manage specific attendance parameters, such as the minimum threshold hours and regular working hours, to suit their company's policies.

Setting these configurations correctly ensures that attendance records are both fair and aligned with the organisation’s expectations.

In this article, we will walk you through the detailed steps for setting the minimum attendance threshold and general working hours using the Attendance Database plugin within uKnowva HRMS.

Step 1: Accessing uKnowva Configuration

To begin, log into your uKnowva HRMS account. Once you are logged in, navigate to the top-right corner of the page where your profile icon is located.

Click on your profile icon to open a drop-down menu that offers various options. From the available list, select uKnowva Configuration.

This selection will immediately take you into the backend settings panel, allowing you to manage different administrative and plugin configurations.

Step 2: Opening the Plugin Manager

Inside the uKnowva Configuration panel, look to the left-hand side of the page. You will see a menu that contains several important sections.

Locate and click on the Plugin Manager option from this menu.

The Plugin Manager is where all the installed and available plugins are listed, each designed to extend the capabilities of your uKnowva HRMS environment.

Step 3: Locating and Accessing the Attendance Database Plugin

Within the Plugin Manager, you can either manually scroll through the list of plugins or make use of the search bar at the top of the list for quicker access.

In the search bar, type in Attendance Database to find the required plugin promptly.

Once you locate it, click on the plugin name, and it will open a pop-up window where further configurations can be adjusted.

Step 4: Configure Minimum Attendance Threshold and Regular Working Hours

Within the Attendance Database plugin’s settings, scroll to locate the configuration fields for Minimum Attendance Threshold (hrs) and Regular Working Hrs.

These fields allow you to specify the minimum number of hours an employee must work for their attendance to be marked as present, as well as define the standard working hours expected each day.

You can now edit these values according to your organisational policies.

For example, if your company's minimum working hours for marking a day as present is six hours, you can set the Minimum Attendance Threshold (hrs) accordingly.

Similarly, if your standard working day is nine hours, you can set that value in the Regular Working Hrs field.

Feel free to adjust any additional related settings if necessary while you are in this section.
