Overview
The Schedules tab on your Dashboard (in the panel on the right) 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 Schedules tab 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.
The count and the bar graph show your colleagues, not you. You won’t see yourself counted in your own view.
Whether someone counts as in the office depends on their working location for that day. It starts from the Default Working Location in their profile, and they can change any single day from the dropdown next to that day on their Dashboard. Reserving a desk or parking space also sets them as in the office that day. Booking or being invited to a meeting room doesn’t change their working location, so someone who is remote stays remote.
The list shows people expected in the office that week, along with you and anyone you’ve marked as a Favorite. To see someone else, search for them by name.
Filtering Attendance Data
You can refine the Schedules tab to focus on specific groups or individuals:
Select your lists or teams – 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.
In office with a reservation
Indicates that the person is working in the office and has a reservation there that day, such as a desk or a meeting room. Hover over the icon to see what’s reserved.
In office without a reservation
Indicates that the person is working in the office but does not have anything reserved yet.
Remote / Working from home
Shows that the person is working remotely or from home for that day.
Working from a different office
A checkmark without a circle means the person plans to work from a different office than the one you’re viewing that day.
No working location set
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:
Click your profile icon in the bottom-left corner.
Go to Settings → My Profile.
Scroll down to the Default Working Location section.
Select the appropriate option (Select Office, Remote).
This ensures accurate attendance tracking and helps maintain up-to-date visibility across your team.
💡 Tip: To change just one day, use the working location dropdown next to that day on your Dashboard. If you switch a day to Remote while you have reservations that day, Tactic asks whether you want to keep or cancel them.
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.
