The Challenges
Ziffity faced multiple challenges in enforcing timesheet compliance and Loss of Pay (LOP) policies:
Manual LOP processing
Timesheet non-compliance was identified and handled manually, increasing HR effort and the risk of inconsistencies.
Inaccurate payroll impact
Lack of automated validation between timesheets, leave, and WFH resulted in payroll discrepancies.WFH misuse scenarios
Employees could apply for Work From Home but skip timesheet updates, leading to policy violations without enforcement.No structured reversal mechanism
Employees had no formal, auditable process to contest or reverse LOP deductions after correcting timesheets.Role-based exceptions not handled
Certain roles such as Delivery Managers and Tech Leads required exemption during travel or specific scenarios, which was difficult to manage manually.

Implementation
Spikra implemented a structured and policy-driven automation framework within Zoho People.
LOP Automation Logic
A scheduled workflow evaluates the previous day’s timesheet automatically.
LOP is applied based on logged hours.
Automation runs daily at a predefined time, ensuring consistency.

Leave & WFH Validation
Existing Sick Leave, Casual Leave, or On-Duty requests are verified before applying LOP.
If a WFH request exists without a timesheet, the system automatically:
-Revokes WFH
-Applies LOP as per defined criteria

Role-Based Eligibility & Exclusions
Automation applies only to permanent employees in the delivery team.
Delivery Managers and Tech Leads can be excluded dynamically when required

LOP Reversal Workflow
A dedicated LOP Reversal Tracker was implemented.
Employees can submit a reversal request after updating their timesheet.
Approval workflow is routed to reporting managers.
Upon approval, the system automatically revalidates timesheets and:
-Cancels LOP
-Converts full-day LOP to partial
-Retains LOP if criteria are unmet
