How to Configure Sandwich policy for No attendance penalties?

Learn how to configure the sandwich policy in Keka HRMS to avoid attendance penalties. Customize leave policies for flexible attendance management.

The sandwich policy is where if a leave is adjoining a week off/holiday, then the week off/holiday is also considered a leave. Similarly, for No attendance penalizations, we can configure such penalizations when no attendance date is adjoining a week off/holiday.

To configure this, go to Time Attend (1) and select Attendance Tracking (2). here under Penalisation Policy (3) select the Penalisation policy you want. Now move to Versions (3) and you will see the different tracking policy versions. Now on the latest version click the Edit (5) Icon available.

In the page, select the date under Effective from (this should be the present or a future date. You cannot select a past date) and click Save. 

Now on the No Attendance page, toggle the switch to enable it. Here you can decide to Deduct X day(s) leave for every day of no attendance.

 Also, you will see Penalise adjoining holiday, if there are X or more day(s) with no attendance option and Penalise adjoining week-off, if there are X or more day(s) with no attendance option. You can select these and choose one of the 4 options available and then click Save.

Hope the process to configure a sandwich policy for no attendance is now clear. Need more help? You can refer to the other articles available.
