Early-out is the minutes before check-out beyond the allowed grace. Both come from your timetable. See [timetable setup](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkbio-time-net-create-timetable-and-shift). ## Get the report 1. Download punches and run Calculate for the period. 2. Open Report > Attendance Report > View Report. 3. Choose Daily Total or the monthly summary. 4. Select the department and month. 5. Sort or filter on Late and Early columns. ## Make it fair - Agree grace minutes and publish them. - Check the terminal time is accurate ([set the time](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkteco-k40-pro-set-date-and-time)). - Allow for queues if many people punch at once; place the terminal well ([where to install](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkteco-k40-pro-where-to-install)). - Look at patterns, not single minutes. **Figure 1.** The Daily Total report. ## Use the data Share the monthly list with department heads. Look at repeated lateness, not one-off events. Combine it with leave data so approved absences are not penalised. ## Export Send it to payroll or HR in Excel. See [export to Excel](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkbio-time-net-export-report-to-excel). ## A typical scenario A call centre published its five-minute grace rule, aligned the terminal clock and then reviewed repeated lateness monthly. Complaints about unfairness dropped, and the few repeat cases were handled with a conversation, not a surprise deduction. *Illustrative example based on common cases, not a named customer.* ## Common mistakes - Counting lateness against a fast terminal clock. - No grace policy. - Penalising approved late starts. - Looking only at single events. - Not telling staff the rule. ## Quick checklist 1. Policy agreed 2. Clock checked 3. Calculated 4. Report run 5. Exceptions removed 6. Follow-up recorded ## Frequently asked questions Can I set different grace periods for different teams? Yes, make a timetable per team with its own grace minutes. Why is everyone late by the same amount? The terminal clock is probably fast, or the check-in time in the timetable is wrong. Do approved late arrivals count? Add a leave or manual record so they do not. Can late time be deducted from pay? That is a payroll policy. The software supplies the minutes; follow Kenyan employment law and your contracts.
