Late Arrivals: what report is this?

The Late Arrivals report displays delayed punch‑ins and return‑from‑break punches for employees.

It helps managers monitor punctuality and investigate reasons for late arrivals. You need recorded punch data for the selected period.

1. Access the late arrivals report

   • In the sidebar, click Reports and select Late arrivals.

   • The page shows filter controls at the top.
     
     

2. Select employees and punch type

   • Use the search field to select a group of people based on the Company Structure. Enter the full name or part of the structure name; Wait for the results to be displayed; Check the type shown below the name, such as Department or Cost center; Select the desired option;

     • To include everyone, keep the default All employees selection or select All.

   • In Punch type, choose Entry or Break End.
     
     

3. Adjust additional filters

   • Click the filter icon to show options.

   • Toggle Show inactive employees, Hide employees with 0 totals, or Hide all supervisors.
     
     

4. Set the date range

   • Select the date range for the analysis.

   • When a group of employees or All employees is selected, the period can only be selected according to the closing period configured in the Payment Groups (e.g., Jan 01 – Jan 31).

   • When a single employee is selected, you can choose a custom date range (e.g., Jan 01 – Mar 15). However, the report can only be generated for a maximum period of 6 months. The system prevents selecting a date range longer than this limit. If you need to export a longer period, contact our Support team.
