  • It can often maintain Time and Attendance Historical Records through time and attendance data archival.
  • It can often detect Time and Attendance Anomaly Patterns through time and attendance fraud prevention.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Basic Time and Attendance System to being an Advanced Time and Attendance System, depending on its time and attendance feature complexity.
  • It can range from being a Standalone Time and Attendance System to being an Integrated Time and Attendance System, depending on its time and attendance system connectivity.
  • It can range from being a Hardware-Based Time and Attendance System to being a Cloud-Based Time and Attendance System, depending on its time and attendance deployment model.
  • It can range from being a Single-Location Time and Attendance System to being a Multi-Location Time and Attendance System, depending on its time and attendance geographic scope.
  • ...
  • It can enforce Time and Attendance Labor Laws through time and attendance compliance automation.
