Steps to Create the Dashboard

  1. Set Up the Time Sheet:

    • Includes employee name, date, time in, and time out.
    • Follow job timing instructions.
  2. Calculate Late Time:

    • Use a formula to determine lateness if the time in is after 8:00 a.m.
    • Subtract the start time from the actual time.
    • Change the cell format to time for accurate results.
  3. Calculate Total Working Hours:

    • Subtract time out from time in for total hours worked.
    • Calculate any short time based on shift duration.
    • Note day off, national day, and absentee days.
  4. Visual Enhancements:

    • Update fonts, colors, and apply a dark theme.
    • Add a title using a text box.
  5. Format Employee Info Worksheet:

    • Enhance feel and look similar to the time sheet.
  6. Create Pivot Tables:

    • Choose source data and insert pivot tables.
    • Change number format to time.
  7. Extract Values from Pivot Tables:

    • Total attendance days.
    • Times employees attend late (after 8 a.m.).
    • Times employees attend on time (by 8 a.m.).
  8. Dashboard Visualization:

    • Display extracted numbers (e.g., total attendance, delays) in the dashboard.
    • Calculate total delay, absent days, and off days.
    • Use formulas to analyze overtime hours.
  9. Chart and Employee Details:

    • Insert a line chart for working hours per month.
    • Add selected employee details via a slicer.
    • Display specific employee data using VLOOKUP and slicer selection.
