The company department’s work settings

Working days must be specified so that StaffCounter correctly determines overtime hours and sends reports.

In order to StaffCounter correctly counts lateness, breaks, and overtime the working hours must be specified. Also, the time of the report by Email receipt depends on when the department finishes work. Reports come 1-2 hours after the department end work time.

A minimal working day is necessary in order for the StaffCounter system to count this working day as worked, otherwise, it will be considered a missed day, and notification of employee malfunction on that day will also be sent to the employer Email.

Holidays must also be specified so that StaffCounter correctly reads overtime hours and sends reports.

In order to keep abreast of the events of the work of departments, without going into the StaffCounter system, the manager can set up receiving daily, weekly, and monthly reports to his email, as well as notification of violations. The owner of the account in StaffCounter can optionally add an email to department managers to receive the necessary reports.
Reports come 1-2 hours after the end of the work of the department specified in the schedule settings.

For each employee, you can specify when he goes on vacation. This data is necessary so that the accounting system does not consider these days as time off and does not send reports of violations in the work of this employee.

For each department, you can set which categories of the following will be considered:
– productive;
– neutral;
– not productive.

Next, you can bind each application in which the employee worked to one of the categories. This is necessary in order for the StaffCounter system to generate a report on how productively the employee worked – a productivity report.

In this section, you can configure which category the application in which the employee worked belongs. This is necessary in order to get the correct report on the productivity of an employee or department.
If you do not specify anything, then all applications will fall into the category – “Without category”

Also in this section, you will be able to sort applications into categories according to another, if something has changed in the work of the company.

The same application can be in different categories, for different departments, since this application (for example, YouTube) uses one section for work and the other department for entertainment.

You can grant permission to view the analytics of your department/employees to other users of the Staffcounter project or get this permission.

This is necessary so that, having all employees in one account, its owner could provide permission to view the data of a particular department to another company employee, for example, the head of this department.

On the employee log page, you can download a backup copy of everything that StaffCounter Agent collects for this employee:
– Logs by day;
– Files (screenshots, cam shots, Audio Files).
