Understanding the Attendance View in the Dashboard

Overview

The Attendance View in the Tactic Dashboard provides a clear snapshot of who is expected in the office throughout the week. It allows admins and team leads to quickly gauge attendance patterns, monitor in-office activity, and identify employees working remotely or without a reservation.

Viewing Attendance

The Attendance View shows how many people are expected to be in the office this week and on a daily basis.

  • Use the office/building selector in the top-right corner to switch between locations.

  • The teal bar graph displays the count of people expected in the office for each day. Hover over a bar to see the exact number.

  • Attendance includes everyone scheduled to be in the office that week — even if they haven’t reserved a desk yet.

This data is automatically calculated based on each user’s Default Working Location, but it also updates in real time as users make reservations throughout the week.


Filtering Attendance Data

You can refine the Attendance View to focus on specific groups or individuals:

  • Teams & Lists – Filter to view attendance for a particular department, project team, or saved list.

  • Employees – Search for and filter by individual users to see their weekly schedule.


Understanding Attendance Icons

Each icon in the daily grid represents an employee’s expected working location for that day.

Appears when the individual has no Default Working Location set in their profile.


Updating Default Working Locations

If an employee’s icon shows a dash, it means no Default Working Location has been set for their profile.

To set or update this:

  1. Click your profile icon in the bottom-left corner.

  2. Go to Settings → My Profile.

  3. Scroll down to the Default Working Location section.

  4. Select the appropriate option (Select Office, Remote).

This ensures accurate attendance tracking and helps maintain up-to-date visibility across your team.


Tips and Best Practices

  • Hover over the bar graph to quickly compare attendance across multiple days.

  • Use team filters to identify which groups will be in the office together.

  • Encourage employees to keep their Default Working Location updated for accurate reporting.

  • Remember: attendance reflects real-time data, so changes to desk bookings or working locations will update immediately.
