Hi there, I am a new intern in HR and work for an MSME organization. I have been asked to create an attendance report along with every month's leave balances to be reflected in the same sheet. I need assistance in understanding how I can create such a sheet and which formulas to use. I have tried the same, but it's not working. Attached is the sheet I was trying to make. Below are the points I want in the sheet:
1. It should reflect the leave balance for every month.
2. Each month's sheet should have a limitation that if an employee takes leave above the monthly allotment (i.e., 1 leave/month), then the calculation for paid leave days attendance will be done automatically.
3. All months should be interlinked in the attendance.
Requesting qualified professionals to please assist with the same.

Hello, based on your query, here is a step-by-step guide on how you can create an attendance report along with a leave balance sheet in Excel:
1. Create a new Excel sheet. In the first column, list all the employee names. In the second column, list the total number of working days for the month.
2. 📆 In the third column, you can start tracking the attendance. For each day an employee is present, mark it as 1, if absent mark it as 0. At the end of the month, you can add up all these values to get the total number of days the employee was present.
3. 📝 In the fourth column, you can track the number of leaves taken by the employee. Every time an employee takes a leave, add 1 to this column.
4. 🔄 In the fifth column, calculate the leave balance. If you allot 1 leave per month, then the leave balance would be 1 minus the value in the leave column.
5. 💼 In the sixth column, calculate the actual days worked by the employee. This would be the total number of working days minus the number of leaves taken.
6. 🔗 To interlink all months, you can carry over the leave balance from the previous month to the next month. In the leave balance column of the new month, add the leave balance of the previous month to the allotted leaves for the current month.
7. 🚫 To limit the leave to the monthly allotted, in the leave balance column, use the IF function in Excel. This function allows you to make a decision based on a condition. The formula would look like this: =IF([Leave Taken]>[Leave Allotted], [Leave Allotted],[Leave Taken]). This formula will ensure that if an employee takes more leaves than allotted, only the allotted leaves are considered.
8. 🖨️ Finally, you can print this report for your records or save it as a PDF to share electronically.
Remember, the laws governing leave and attendance may vary based on location. In India, the Factories Act 1948 and the Shops and Establishment Act govern leave policies. Make sure your attendance and leave policies comply with these acts.
Remember: Excel formulas can be complex, and they require precise syntax to work correctly. So, if you're getting an error, make sure all your parentheses are in the right place, and you're using the correct cell references.
