Hello, I’m trying to figure out the best and most efficient way to document accountability (when people are in and out of the office) for multiple workplaces within an organization using SharePoint. Something that also has tools to pull statistics, e.g. what percentage/number of people were out on average within a certain time frame.Â
My organization has 8 different workplaces, which all track their own manning and would report accountability for each individual within their offices.Â
We need to include reason why people aren’t in the office and what hours they were gone (e.g. 1pm-3pm).
I’m thinking about using a calendar and having people plug in appointments titled with their name and reason for being gone, but that wouldn’t make it easy to pull statistics.
Any ideas? Thanks!Â
Hi, Emily.
Just curious, who will be logging in SharePoint or spreadsheet when a person goes out and comes back?
Are there plans to consolidate these stats together from different workplaces?Â
How many people/transactions are you expecting within a day, month, and year?Â
You will have to evaluate whether SharePoint will be the appropriate tool for your need, even though, it may allow you to collect the data in a list or file.Â

Emily,
You can achieve this in multiple ways. One way would store the accountability data (the time in and out for a day) in a custom list. Have another custom list that would track the out of office hours.Â
So when you have the two lists combined, youncould pull reports like, how many are not in office on a mnetioned day, what is the hours they were out of office and so on.Â
Looks like a timesheet app built on SharePoint could meet your reuirements.Â
