In this document you will learn how to identify the scan method and status of an attendance record in ATS Cloud, separately from the worker’s planned shift. Attendance records include a status and, when available, a scan method that indicates how an event was registered. These are separate from the employee’s planned shift.

What is this option for?

Use them to distinguish manual entries and events coming from supported NFC, QR, geolocation or biometric workflows when investigating discrepancies.

Before you begin

The employee has a saved profile.
At least one attendance record exists for the selected period.

Understanding the controls

Status Filter: Narrows records by current record state.
Scan Type Filter: Narrows records by stored scan method.
Device Filter: Restricts to events tied to a particular device.
Location Filter: Restricts events to a location when recorded.

Step-by-step instructions

Open Work Time Attendance and select the month.
Locate Filters.
Set Status when looking for open or other record states.
Set Scan Type to inspect a particular attendance method.
Optionally choose Device or Location to narrow the investigation.
Review matching employee rows and their timestamps.
Clear the filters after your investigation to restore the full list.
