    Hey @HARI3 

     

    For the status you can set a formula/expression like the following:

     

     

    If(
    IsEmpty(
    Filter(
    attendance,
    EmployeeName = ThisItem.EmployeeName && Date = Today()
    )
    ),
    "Not Available",
    Lookup(
    attendance,
    EmployeeName = ThisItem.EmployeeName && Date = Today(),
    Status
    )
    )

     

    Here:

    • The Filter function filters the attendance list based on the current employee name ThisItem.EmployeeName and today's date ( Today() ).
    • The IsEmpty function checks if there are any records returned by the filter. If there are no records, it means the employee has no clock-in/out entries for today, so "Not Available" is displayed.
    • The Lookup function retrieves the "Status" value from the filtered record if it exists.

     

    I hope this helps 🙂
