Employee leave management is basic HR task and one that affects all employees. Most companies have well defined leave policies that are conveyed them to employees and managers through employee handbooks or HR policy manuals. Yet HR is saddled with administrative OF leave system inundation of leave balances and responding to queries on balances and entitlements from employees and their managers. Employees too find it a bother to have to fill paper forms and chase them up with approving managers. A significant amount of expensive employee, manager and HR time is wasted in a very basic HR process.

Attendance similarly is a basic HR process affecting everyone and critical as a basic input to payroll processing . HR faces problems of integrating attendance inputs from different attendance logging systems   and leave system, card and biometric scanners and manual attendance registers across all business locations. Each month a lot of HR time is spent collecting and reconciling attendance data before payroll can be correctly processed.

Integrating leave and attendance data is essential but not always easy. Many independent leave management and attendance software run independent of the HRIS leaving HR to keep the two sets of data in sync.
