Attendance and Payroll Reconciliation Guide
Payroll reconciliation gets slower when the schedule, clock records, edits, and final files disagree. A cleaner process keeps the approved plan, live attendance, corrections, handoffs, source readiness, and payroll exports connected.
01
Reconcile against the schedule
Start from the approved roster and compare what actually happened. Missing clocks, open clocks, late arrivals, and manual edits should be visible before handoff files, loaded labor cost, or pay runs are prepared.
02
Finalize only after review
Finalization should mark the reviewed payroll evidence, not just close a page. Once final, the timesheet becomes the stable source for handoffs, audit links, loaded labor cost, and supported payroll processing.
03
Export evidence, not just rows
Payroll exports are more useful when they include source context: scheduled hours, recorded hours, variance, overtime, public holiday indicators, statutory readiness where supported, and audit references.
