Monthly Attendance to Salary Refinement

I receive a raw, machine-generated attendance sheet every month and need it transformed into a clean Excel workbook that I can feed straight into payroll. The source file already contains punch-in and punch-out times for each employee; what’s missing is the structure and calculations that let me see, at a glance, how much each person should be paid.

Here’s what the finished workbook must give me:

• Total worked hours per employee, calculated accurately even when shifts cross midnight
• Clear identification of all tardiness and absences, with separate flags for late arrivals, early departures and full-day no-shows
• A concise, per-employee summary sheet that aggregates the month’s data so I can copy figures directly into my salary sheet

Everything should remain in Excel so I can open, review and archive it without extra conversions. If you’d like to use formulas, pivot tables or VBA to automate the process, feel free—what matters is that every month I can drop the new raw file in, run your solution and obtain the refined report quickly and consistently.

Once it’s set up, I’ll test it against this month’s data; if all the figures tally, we’re good to go for subsequent months.
