Attendance Geolocation

This module records where employees check in and out and lets them add a short message with each action. It reads the browser location when the employee signs in or out from the attendance menu and stores latitude and longitude on the attendance record. HR officers and attendance managers use it to verify remote or field attendance. It plugs into the HR Attendance app and adds a map link on each record.

1. 1

   Sign in or out with location

   The employee uses the check in and out control in the top bar. The browser asks for the location permission and the module captures the coordinates. If the location is refused, an error notification is shown.

   • Top bar attendance control
   • Browser location permission
   • Error notification if refused
2. 2

   Add a check-in or check-out message

   The employee can type a note when signing in or out. The messages are stored as Check in message and Check out message on the attendance record. Managers read them to understand late or remote work.

   • Check in message
   • Check out message
   • Stored on the record
3. 3

   Open the location on a map

   Attendance list and form views show latitude, longitude and two URL fields that open the check-in and check-out location in Google Maps. One click shows where the action was made. This works for both actions.

   • Latitude and longitude fields
   • URL widget for check-in
   • URL widget for check-out

   Search results by employee and period

   Under the Get Geolocation Result menu, restricted to attendance managers, the user selects employees, department, job position and a date range and presses Search. A Map Result tab lists the matching attendances, and Clear resets the form.

   • Employees, department, job, dates
   • Search and Clear buttons
