Your Attendance Points Policy

Out of the spreadsheet. Into a system of record.

Your HR team is wasting hours each week maintaining your employee point-system spreadsheet. One wrong formula or accidental input can lead to a grievance. There's a better way!

Manage attendance points end-to-end, calculations, reconciliation, and easy audits with TeamSense.

Why It Matters

Points management is the most manual, error-prone, and exposed work in HR.

Most attendance point systems run on an Excel or Smartsheet file that someone maintains by hand. Every week, it's exported, applied, tracked, and fingers crossed the math holds.

It costs hours.

Even the smallest sites require one to two hours a week just to keep the balances current, before anyone disputes a number.

It's error-prone.

Manual math plus conditional rules means a single error can put someone on a disciplinary step they didn't earn.

It carries compliance risk.

The moment a protected leave gets scored by mistake, the exposure stops being a spreadsheet headache and becomes a legal one.

How It Works

From upload to balance, your policy runs itself

Upload your policy

Drop in the policy doc you already have. TeamSense reads it and configures the rules: event types, point values, rolling windows, discipline steps, and who it applies to. Review, adjust, preview, and activate.

Scored on the truth on the floor

When an absence occurs, the engine scores it against the live policy, applying the conditions real policies use: holiday weeks, late versus no notice, repeat absences.

Confirmed, applied, and on the record

Every point and every override, waiver, or policy change is logged with a timestamp and a reason. You'll always know exactly what happened and why, with a full audit trail tied to the exact policy version in effect that day.

An automated, defensible system that supports your people

Stand up a policy in minutes

Upload the policy you already run and TeamSense turns it into working rules.

• 1 Drop in a PDF, Word, Excel, or CSV policy document
• 2 TeamSense extracts the rules and shows them back for review
• 3 Adjust anything that needs a human eye, then activate. No IT ticket, no waiting.

Points calculated the moment an event occurs

The system scores against the live policy, grounded in what actually happened on the floor.

• 1 An absence, tardy, or early departure event occurs
• 2 The system applies the policy, including conditional rules like late-vs-no-notice and holiday weeks
• 3 The score and the rules that produced it are visible in TeamSense

Catch protected leave before you point

TeamSense flags possible FMLA situations a single event and a recurring pattern over time before any point is applied.

• 1 The system inspects each event and the pattern across events for protected-leave signals
• 2 A possible FMLA situation is flagged for review before a point lands
• 3 If a trusted source already confirms the leave, the point is waived to zero and recorded

Every point traces back to the rule that produced it

Confirmations, overrides, waivers, and policy edits are all on the record.

• 1 Each assessment logs who acted, when, which rule fired, and why
• 2 Policy versions are dated, so a point traces back to the exact rules in force that day
• 3 When a balance is challenged, the answer is already in the record

Employees check their own balance. No call to HR.

The same text-first experience your frontline already uses, now for attendance points.

• 1 An employee texts in for their balance
• 2 TeamSense replies with their current confirmed balance
• 3 Supervisors can see the same picture in-app, including distance to the next discipline step

Why TeamSense

Attendance points you can actually stand behind.

Points are only as defensible as the events behind them. TeamSense scores what a supervisor confirmed actually happened, then makes that record work for everyone who depends on it.

For HR

The policy you actually run, configured from your own document and defensible to the day. Override anything, with the reason on the record.

For supervisors

A live view of where each person stands and how close they are to the next step, so coaching happens before the threshold, not after.

For employees

A balance they can check by text, the same way they already report an absence. No surprises, no calling HR to find out.
