Understanding the Dashboard
Your Dashboard is the first thing you see after logging into OpenHR. It's personalized based on your role and shows the most relevant information at a glance.
This is a sub-guide of Welcome to OpenHRApp.
Employee Dashboard — Your Personal Overview
As an Employee, your dashboard shows:
- Quick Actions — Buttons for Office Check-In, Factory Check-In, Finish Session, and Apply for Leave. These are shortcuts to the most common daily tasks.
- Today's Status — Whether you've clocked in today, your check-in time, and current session status.
- Leave Balance Summary — Your remaining Annual, Casual, and Sick leave days (see Leave Policies).
- Recent Announcements — The latest announcements from your organization.
- Team Information — Your team name, team lead, and reporting manager.
- Upcoming Holiday — The next public/company holiday.
Manager Dashboard — Team Oversight
As a Manager, you see everything an Employee sees, plus:
- Team Attendance Summary — How many of your direct reports are present, late, or absent today.
- Pending Leave Approvals — Leave requests from your team that need your action. A count badge highlights how many are waiting.
- Team Member Cards — Quick view of your direct reports with their current attendance status.
Admin/HR Dashboard — Organization-Wide View
As an Admin or HR user, you see the full organizational picture:
- Organization-Wide Stats — Total employees, today's attendance rate, pending leave requests, active review cycles.
- Department Breakdown — Attendance and leave statistics by department.
- System Health — Active sessions, pending items, and recent activity.
- Quick Links — Navigate to all management modules (Employees, Organization, Reports, etc.).
- Recent Activity Feed — Latest attendance check-ins, leave requests, and review submissions across the organization.
Tips for Using Your Dashboard Effectively
- Use the quick action buttons to save time — they take you directly to the clock-in screen or leave form.
- Check your dashboard at the start of each workday to see any pending approvals or important announcements.
- Managers: Keep an eye on the pending approvals count — responding quickly to leave requests helps your team.
