Overview
Envoy's Employee attendance report gives admins and managers a clear view of which employees are coming into the workplace and adhering to the (optional) onsite policy. By integrating with your HRIS, you can make these reports even smarter and more reflective of real-world employee behavior. Your HRIS will send Envoy employee time off data, adding context to missed check-ins and providing more accurate occupancy data. Envoy integrates with Merge to connect your account with your HR system.
✨ Important: After the initial connection, all available time off data will sync to Envoy, retroactively populating the Attendance by Employee report and making past reports more accurate.✨

Admin access to your HRIS
Your HRIS API Key. You need to go through the specific HRIS platform your company uses. The location of the key can vary depending on the provider, so it's best to refer to that system's documentation for guidance.
HRIS + Envoy Setup
Step 1: HRIS
Login to your Envoy dashboard, then navigate to Integrations. Search for HRIS, then click Install.
Using the dropdown, select your HRIS provider, then click Connect Account to open the HRIS Connection modal.
The HRIS Connection modal will load with your HRIS configuration steps. Complete the setup modal as required. The exact connection method (via API, SFTP, OAuth, etc) varies by provider.
Click Connect Account again to save and proceed.
Step 2: Configurations (Optional)
You can connect your workplace's specific time off types to Envoy Time Off Types for more granular attendance data. If you skip this step, all approved data from your HRIS will be shown as Time off within Envoy.
Envoy only uses two options: Time off and Work from Home. Time off days count towards the onsite attendance policy, while Work from Home days do not.
Use the left-hand Envoy dropdown to select the category to define. On the right-hand HRIS time off types, input values as a comma separated list. Match this value to the corresponding HRIS time off category. Repeat until the desired categories have been defined.
Click Complete setup to save and finish.
About Employee Data
Envoy only needs the relevant time off data to complete the analytics population. Envoy's database does not receive unnecessary employee data, like payroll details or sensitive PII.
