On each attendance history record you can view attendee details, time in and time out, answers to health screening questions and notices, and the exact location the attendee at the time of sign in/out (via Google Maps).

  • Locate the attendance record you need to edit, using the filters if necessary.
  • Click Edit in the Actions column

The Export the Payroll option exports data to a CSV file as well, but groups all attendance data by:

Print Sign In Poster

This article applies to the Wrkplace Attendance module.

To allow employees, contractors, visitors and delivery drivers to effortlessly sign-in and out of your workplace, print an A4 Sign-In Poster complete with QR code.

This QR code can be scanned by each attendee to your workplace, by their mobile phone camera or QR code reader.

Each Place (site) you have configured in Places is assigned a unique QR code and sign in poster.

Attendees do not have to use a QR code reader on their mobile device. Smartphones no older than 2016 (approximately) can generally scan QR codes using the camera function.

Upon scanning a QR code, the unique sign in screen displays in the attendee’s default browser on their mobile device.


Here is how to print your sign in poster for each Place you have configured.

  • Navigate toΒ ConfigureΒ >Β Places
  • View the QR Code sign in poster by clicking the view (eye) icon for each Place you have configured
  • Click Print to open your computer’s default print function.
  • From there you can print or (on most computer operating systems) save as a PDF for later use.

Print as many sign in posters as desired to ensure they are conveniently displayed to all attendees at all relevant entry and exit points, and any congregational areas such as an office or tack room.

You may also wish to print a helpful Sign In Instructions poster for your employees. This document includes important instructions on how employees can enable Location Services on their mobile device browser – an important security feature.

Configure Confirmations

This article applies to the Wrkplace Attendance module.

Wrkplace Attendance can display a confirmation message to specified attendees upon successful sign in or sign out of specified Places (sites).

These confirmation messages are great to share important information to your attendees, especially staff members.

Unlike Notices, however, there is no response required from attendees.

You can choose to display a notice upon an attendee successfully signing in or upon signing out. Or choose to not display any at all.

Display gate entry codes, upcoming runners in the stable, staff meetings or a list of horses who are unwell, when employees sign in.

Perhaps display a link to your website to join your mailing list, when visitors sign out.


Here is how to configure confirmation messages.

  • Navigate to Attendance Manager > Confirmations

Configure Notices

This article applies to the Wrkplace Attendance module.

Wrkplace Attendance allows you to present safety or other notices of any kind on the attendee’s device when they are signing in to your workplace.

These notices appear after the Health Screening question(s) are displayed, and only if the attendee’s response to those questions (yes or no) is acceptable to allow them to enter your workplace.

These notices can be tailored to each attendee type and workplace (site).

Multiple notices can be displayed on attendee devices. Attendees will have to review each notice and respond with either Accept or Reject, on each notice.

Notices are optional.

Configure Health Screening

This article applies to the Wrkplace Attendance module.

Wrkplace Attendance’s health screening feature allows you to ask one or more questions of each attendee upon signing in to your workplace, and requires your attendees to answer either YES or NO.

Your attendees’ answer to each question will determine whether they are authorised to enter your workplace or not.

These health screening questions can apply to one, multiple or all attendee types (Employees, Contractors, Visitors, Event Attendees or Delivery Drivers). This allows you to ask specific questions, or not ask specific questions, of certain attendees.

You must have at least one Health Screening question configured.


Here is how to configure your health screening questions.

Navigate to Attendance Manager > Health Screening

  • Select Add Question
  • Select which attendee type(s) this question applies to
  • Type in your question (we recommend no greater than two lines)
  • Specify which answer (Yes/No) will authorise your attendee’s entry into your workplace

You can add, edit or delete any health question to ask attendees upon signing in.
