MAIN FUNCTIONS
GLOSSARY
• Super User: It refers to a user with all operation permissions of the system. A Super User is able to assign new users
(such as company management personnel, registrars or attendance Administrators) and configure corresponding
user roles.
• Role: When using the system, a super user needs to assign different levels to new users. To avoid setting users one
by one, you can set roles with specific levels in role management, and assign appropriate roles to users when adding
users.
• Attendance Timetable: It refers to the timetables possibly used during attendance settings and configuration of all
parameters such as work start/end time, permissible time for late arrival/early leaving, whether check-in/out is
mandatory, permissible check-in/out time range, break time, and overtime. This is the minimum unit in attendance
time settings.
• Unit/Minimum Unit: The unit covers day, hour and minute and the minimum unit is a numeric value. The
combination of these two is used to set the minimum computing unit of a parameter in statistics such as one day,
one hour or one minute. For example, the minimum unit of leave is set to one hour. When rounding-off is enabled,
the value 1.5 is counted as two hours and the value 1.4 is counted as one hour after rounding off.
• Auto Overtime: When the punching time is later than work end time, this parameter determines whether the
excessive time is counted as overtime.
• Attendance Status: It refers to what type of the attendance for punching will be counted in the attendance result.
By default, the system has eight statuses: Check-In, Check-Out, Dinner-Start, Dinner End, OT-In, OT-Out, Break-Out,
and Break-In.
• Late Arrival: Late arrival includes the time setting for corresponding timetable and the setting of starting calculation
of late arrival, and whether actual check-in time is later than due check-in time in the timetable. On the other hand,
if Must Check-in in the timetable is set to Yes and the attendance parameter is No Check-in, Count as Late 60
Minutes, the actual time without check-in is counted as late arrival for N minutes. The time of late arrival does not
affect the work minutes for attendance calculation.
• Early Leaving: Early leaving includes the time setting for corresponding timetable and the setting of starting
calculation of early leaving, and whether actual check-out time is earlier than due check-out time in the timetable.
On the other hand, if Mandatory Check-out in the timetable is set to Yes and the attendance parameter is Ending
Work Without Check-out is counted as Early Leaving for N Minutes, the actual time without check-out is counted
as early leaving for N minutes. The time of early leaving does not affect the work minutes for attendance calculation.
• Absence: Based on attendance parameter settings, the case of no check-in or check-out in attendance statistics can
be counted as absence, or late arrival/early leaving for more than N minutes in attendance parameter settings can
be counted as absence.
• No Check-In/No Check-Out: No Check in / No Check out refers to the times of no actual implementation in the
times of due check in / due Check-out.
• Attendance Duration (Time): It refers to the time span between actual check in time and actual check out time.
• Shift: It refers to a preset work schedule for the personnel and is composed of one or more preset attendance
timetables based on certain order and cycle period. For employee attendance, the employee shifts to be used must
be set first.
• Schedule: It refers to what kind of shift will be used in a timetable for employee attendance. It is a main basis for
calculating attendance results. If an employee works in a flexible schedule and attendance checking is required, a
flexible shift can be arranged. If an employee has a punching record without a shift arranged, the attendance results
are calculated as overtime based on flexible shifts.
• Temporary Schedule: If the shifts on some dates are adjusted due to temporary changes of employee work time
after scheduling, the temporary schedule can be used. Temporary schedule can be set as only temporarily valid or
appending to an employee shift (two schedule records in the attendance statistics in this case). This mode of
schedule is very applicable to the posts without fixed schedules.
• Permissible Late Arrival/Early Leaving: It refers to the permissible time for late arrival/early leaving before the
designation of late arrival/early leaving starts during specified work time.
• Must Check-in/Check-Out: In some companies, only check-in or check-out is carried out. If check-in or check-out is
set to be mandatory, corresponding items are included in the range of attendance.
• Flexible Timetable: It refers to a default timetable set in the system. In the settings of a flexible timetable, the work
delay is not counted as overtime, and late arrival, early leaving or absence is not counted. The attendance
calculation for a flexible timetable is second punching time minus first punching time, fourth punching time minus
third punching time, and so on. The line numbers of its report are generated automatically. If four records exist,
the daily report on that day has two lines. If six records exist, the daily report has three lines. Besides, the
attendance time in a timetable is check-out time minus check-in time of this timetable.
• Start/End Check-In: It refers to a timetable which is the valid range of check-in. The check-in records out of this
range are invalid.
LANA Time Web 4.1 3
• Start/End Check-Out: It refers to a timetable which is the valid range of check-out. The check-out records out of
this range are invalid. The check-out start time cannot overlap the check-in end time.
SYSTEM PROCEDURE
The following takes a Super User as an example to introduce how to use the system. Different users have different op
eration permissions, so corresponding operation procedures are different. Users need to only follow the procedure be
low to operate the items displayed on the interface.
Step 1 : Log in to the system and modify the default password for your account.
Step 2 : Assign accounts and roles for the personnel using the system (such as company management personnel,
registrars and attendance administrators).
Step 3 : Set common system information such as system parameters, announcements and alerts.
Step 4 : Set the department organization architecture according to the company structure and set corresponding
position information.
Step 5 : Enter employee information, issue cards to the employees, and conduct daily maintenance.
Step 6 : Set the regional structure of the company, add a T&A device for the system, and configure basic information
about the device.
Step 7 : Set the attendance parameters. You can use the default settings or modify the settings as required.
Step 8 : Set the attendance timetables which may be used during attendance, and set relevant parameters.
Step 9 : Set the shifts frequently used in attendance system, that is, the cycle combination modes of attendance
time tables within the time interval.
Step 10 : Schedule the shifts for employees and set which employees are in which shifts. For an employee with the
shift arranged, if a temporary change occurs, the temporary schedule can be used for setting.
Step 11 : Conduct attendance maintenance. During daily attendance, because of abnormalities, the settings of leave,
holiday, and compensatory leave are required.
Step 12: Enable the system to output an attendance report. The system collects statistics and outputs attendance
reports on the basis of attendance period.

Choose Attendance >> Rule >> Add to access the attendance parameter setting interface.
CALCULATION
In this section we can set the calculation rules for the attendance
You can set statistical rules and symbols for normal arrival time/actual arrival time, late arrive, early leaving, leave,
absence, overtime, no check-in and no check-out on this interface.
Note: Use minutes as the minimum unit when calculating the absence time.
Signs in Report: Users can set symbols of normal arrival time/actual arrival time, late arrival, and early leaving in the
report as needed.
SET RULE
TIME TABLE
Set the time periods that may be used during attendance and set various parameters. The timetable is the minimum
unit in personnel attendance time settings. For example: These settings include work start/end time, allowed late
arrival/early leaving duration, whether check-in/check-out is mandatory, allowed time period for check-in/out, rest
time, and overtime.
Before scheduling the shift, you must set all shift timetables possibly used. Only in this way can various parameters set
be valid.
Flexible Timetable: Work delay is not counted as overtime, and late arrival, early leaving or absence is not calculated.
The attendance for a flexible time period is calculated by the even number of card-punching times. The line numbers
of its report are generated automatically. If four records exist, the daily report on that day has two lines. If six records
exist, the daily report has three lines. Besides, the attendance time in a time period is check-out time minus check-in
time.
For example, if Allowed late minute is set to 5 and check-in time is set to 9:00; Employee A checked in at 9:03 and
Employee B checked in at 9:05, we can conclude that Employee A is not late as the interval between his or her check-
in time and check-in start time is less than 5 minutes and Employee B is late for 6 minutes as the interval between his
or her check-in time and check-in start time exceeds 5 minutes.
Workday: It refers to how many workdays are calculated for each shift. If a value is set for it, the workday will be
calculated according to the present value. Otherwise, the workday will be calculated according to settings in the
attendance rules.
Auto OT: When overtime is calculated, if select Yes for Count Delayed Time as Overtime, the overtime is the delayed
time (the difference between check-out time and check-out end time) + the fixed overtime (minutes) during this
timetable. The value is 0 if No is selected for Count Delayed Time as Overtime.
After the completion of the settings, click OK to save the settings and return to the Time Table interface. The timetable
list displays the added timetable.
Notes:
1. The interval between check-in start time and check-out end time is not allowed to exceed the maximum / minimum
timetable length set in the system.
2. There is no timetable with the same start time and end time.
Choose Attendance >> Timetable >> Edit Timetable >> Add Brake Time:
