A register that is worth keeping because something depends on it: the salary at the end of the month is calculated from what was marked during it.
Attendance kept in a notebook is a chore with no payoff — it gets marked when someone remembers, and at month end the salary is worked out from memory anyway.
When the register feeds payroll, the daily mark is the thing that decides what is paid. In and out times are recorded, weekly offs are accounted for, and nobody has to reconstruct a month from a diary and a phone.
Once, with the details payroll will need later.
So the register knows which days are not working days.
Present or absent, with in and out times.
Payroll reads the register rather than a diary.
Staff records, the daily attendance register, and the salary that comes out of it. Pay is worked out from the attendance already marked, with advances and weekly offs accounted for, rather than from a separate calculation.
Attendance is a daily habit and payroll is a monthly one, so the value shows up at month end when the two meet without a spreadsheet in between.
