Common questions

Questions about workflow automation.

What can WorkMentor automate?

Automation in WorkMentor focuses on attendance. Rules watch for conditions such as late counts, work from home patterns, and request counts, then send email notifications, deduct leave, or create requests.

When do automation rules run?

Rules run on a schedule or after payroll is completed. Each run is logged, and failed runs can be retried.

Can WorkMentor deduct leave for repeated late arrivals?

Yes. A rule can deduct leave when an employee's late count meets a set condition. The same rules can also send email notifications or generate attendance requests.

Which plan includes workflow automation?

Automation workflows and alerts are included in the Pro and Enterprise plans, not the Free plan. Pro costs $9 per user per month and starts with a 30-day free trial, with no credit card required.
