Due to the Covid-19, like other sectors, my company has started the work from the home part for all our employees. My concern here is, being an HR I have to keep and track the record of an employees' performance. Sometimes, I see people used to mark their attendance from our online portal and then also they were unable to complete even the basic tasks on that day itself. How can I prevent all my colleagues to under-perform? They think that even if they don't complete their tasks, nothing will harm them as of the reason Covid-19. Are there any other measures which I can take to properly keep records and monitor the performances from home itself? It's becoming difficult for me to manage.

Responsibility for days task is of employee and his concerned departmental head or team manager.
why is the responsibility being placed on you.
For work at home team managers need to spell out clearly what is expected from each employee and time limits etc.
Team managers need to have timely checks and rechecks to see output is of required standard and quantity/quality
Employer/employee need to develop trust and communication to ensure that work at home succeeds.
HR can play an enabling role in such crisis situations.
Regular HR contingency plans should already specify key functions, roles, skills and activities required to keep the organization operating — and which can be done remotely. In a sudden crisis, though, those boundaries may stretch and require you to offer different types of support and nontraditional work options.
HR needs to communicate,coordinate and be available for all employees working at home and be in touch with team managers who really know the output required/task to be completed by each employee.
Many companies are now suddenly thrown into work at home method.Shortfalls will be there and HR can at best play a role in bringing up these issues to higher ups and try to resolve them to best extent possible.

Still, I need to keep their performance report card. How should I manage with Team Leaders because some TL’s are quite senior to me.

Senior people should be dealt with respectfully but professionally.
If you need a document from them for official work unhesitatingly but politely ask them,mail them the requirement.
TL who are senior will equally understand the need for documentation of work done and in all probability be happy enough to provide documentation,output recrds etc.

To make sure that employees are working from home properly, you can monitor your employees on by assigning them tasks on timely basis and ask them to update the status of the task given on a regular basis which actually ensures that your employees are working from properly and productively. This is the effective workforce management method used by the managers to monitor the performances of the employees. A sound performance management system is required for improved workforce and productivity during crisis times.

Since the COVID-19 outbreak, most of the employees forced to work from home. Working from home has not been productive for employees as there are many things that they get distracted while working remotely. Most of the companies struggle to figure out if the employees are productive while working from home. I started to work from home during the first week of April 2020, the company I work for provided the employees with different software to keep track of our working progress. Since the software was tracking my work, I had to make sure that I complete my day to day work tasks successfully. It also motivated me to be more productive while working from home, knowing that my employer is tracking my working progress.
Some of the leading software that was offered by the company was:
ZOOM this a communication software that is eligible to have face to face video conferencing mostly for official purposes. Zoom helped me in keeping in touch with my employer as I managed to clear my doubts related to work. The software can connect 300 people at the same time. We also used the software to conduct official meetings with the employees and the higher-level managers.
HRAPP Activity Tracker is a software that was developed in India, user-friendly software that was built to track employees' whole process related to work. The employee has to enter the start and the end time of the working shift. Once the employee has started his work, the employer can take random screenshots of the employee screen. Since I know that the employer has access to my screen any time during the work hour, I always make sure that I keep working on behalf of completing the organization's goals.
