If circumstances arise that will cause you to be late, you can use the Time & Attendance module to create an attendance notification that reports your expected arrival time and the reason for your late arrival.

To create a late arrival attendance notification:

  1. From the Time & Attendance menu, select My Timecard.

    Note: If the My Timecard option is not visible, make sure that you have selected Employee in the Role Selector.

  2. On the Today’s Activities section, click the Late Arrival button.

  3. On the Report Late Arrival page, select either Today or Tomorrow to indicate which day you will be late.

    Tip: The late arrival feature only allows you to report that you will be late today or tomorrow. If you know more than one day in advance that you will be late, you should notify your manager personally and arrange to have your schedule adjusted for the planned late arrival.

  4. In the Expected Arrival field, enter your expected arrival time.

    Tip: This field defaults to the current time. Enter your expected arrival time in place of this current time.

  5. In the Comments field, enter any further information you want to provide to your manager, such as the reason for your late arrival.

  6. Click Submit to complete and save your late arrival notification.

    The Home page will reappear and display a success message and a confirmation number for your attendance notification in the Today's Activities section. The next time your manager logs in to the Time & Attendance module, your notification will appear on their Home page. You may also see a message in the Today's Activities section that indicates that an e-mail was sent to your manager and any other individuals who have been designated to receive such notifications.

    Note: Even if the Today's Activities messages indicate that no e-mail was sent (because no recipient has been specified by your system administrator), your notification will appear on your manager's Home page in the Time & Attendance module.

Tip: You can view and search your attendance notification history on the My Attendance page or by clicking the My Attendance Notifications link on the Home page. See Viewing Your Attendance Notifications for more information.
