Your attendance record for January will impact your salary for February. If you have taken a leave on 12thJan, then this leave should be applied and approved on the HR portal (I-Connect) by 15th of next month i.e February. In case this is not done as per timeline, then the system will read 12th January as Absent and 1 day’s salary will be deducted from your salary for February.
The next payroll is for the month of March. To ensure zero deductions in March salary all leave and*attendance regularizations (ARs) for February should be applied and approved on the HRIS portal by 15th of March. In order to receive the reversal of 12th Jan, the leave application for this date should also be closed by 15th March.
If missed then 16th March onwards your access to January’s attendance will be closed and no further reversals will be possible.
*In case of mispunches or On-duty (OD), attendance for a particular date can be corrected on the HR portal through regularization.
