Welcome to Attendex HR
What Attendex HR does, how the admin and employee portals fit together, and a checklist for setting up your company.
Attendex HR brings attendance, leave, payroll, tax and day-to-day HR for Indian companies into one place. This page explains how the product is organised and gives you a setup checklist, so you can go from a new account to your first payroll without missing a step.
How Attendex is organised
| Portal | Who uses it | Where to sign in |
|---|---|---|
| Admin portal | Company admins, HR, payroll staff and line managers | yourcompany.attendex.in/admin/login |
| Employee portal | Every employee who has been invited to sign in | yourcompany.attendex.in/member |
Every company gets its own address, such as yourcompany.attendex.in. Your people sign in there and see your company's name and logo on the sign-in page. If you don't know your address, see Find your company's sign-in address.
Inside the admin portal, the left menu is grouped into sections: Overview, People, Core HR, Time & Attendance, Leave, Payroll, Performance, Hiring, Engage, Insights and Settings. You only see the sections your role allows and the modules your plan includes.
Setup checklist
Work through these in order. Each step links to the articles that explain it.
- Create your company account and sign in. See Create your company account.
- Fill in your company profile, logo and statutory IDs (PAN, TAN, PF, ESIC, PT). See Set up your company details and statutory IDs.
- Add your work locations and choose your weekly off days. See Add work locations and set weekly offs.
- Check the financial year, date format, time zone and employee code format. See Set company preferences and employee codes.
- Invite the colleagues who will help you run HR and payroll, and give each a role. See Add and manage admin users.
- Add departments, designations and your employees, then send them sign-in invites. See Add an employee, Import employees from a CSV file and Give employees portal access.
- Set up shifts, holidays and, if you use them, biometric devices. See Create and edit shifts, Connect a ZKTeco biometric device and Attendance & shifts.
- Review the leave types and leave policies. See Leave.
- Add salary structures and statutory settings, then run your first payroll. See Payroll and Tax & compliance.
You can come back to any step later. Nothing is locked once saved — you can edit company details, locations and preferences at any time from Settings → Organization.
