Hand the Zoho People attendance entries to a companion
Hand a companion the outcome. It reads the Zoho People attendance entries, does the 4-operation version of the job, and stops for your click on anything that changes a record.
Open the attendance entry. Check it against something else. Write the change. Move to the next one. That is the Zoho People afternoon nobody can hand off, and a companion does the whole pass and gives you back the batch, with nothing landing on a attendance entry until you approve it.
What it can do is exactly what Zoho People exposes to an account you authorise and nothing beyond it: 4 operations, 1 read and 3 writes. In practice that means it can update a record, create an attendance entry and add a record, and work across the attendance entries and records.
The Zoho People API stops at Zoho People. A companion does not. The same run opens the customer's website, the supplier portal, the internal tool somebody built in 2019, because it is working the browser you are already signed into rather than calling in from outside it.
Where do the attendance entries come from?
1 of the 4 operations is a read.
Your account, not a guess at it: a companion can get attendance entries, and the full list below is the whole list, with nothing inferred from Zoho People's documentation.
The attendance entries are what most of this inventory is about, alongside the records. A companion can hold all 4 of these operations and forty open tabs in the same pass, which is how an afternoon of Zoho People admin becomes a queue you review.

Which attendance entries wait for your approval?
All 3 write operations wait for you.
A companion can update a record, create an attendance entry and add a record, and each one is staged on an approval card first: you see the attendance entry, the field and the new value before it lands in Zoho People.
Nothing in Zoho People is sent, changed or deleted on your behalf without that click, and a rejected card leaves the attendance entry exactly as it was. The gate is the same one on every surface, described at security.

What does the recurring attendance entries pass look like?
Yes.
Saved as a routine, the Zoho People attendance entries pass runs at the hour you pick: the Monday sweep, the overnight refresh, the Friday check. Keep Awake holds the machine awake for the length of a run, so a scheduled pass finishes with the lid closed.
The recruiting playbook catalogues the other recurring shapes of hiring admin, the Zoho People attendance entries sweep among them, and finished runs are published at real runs.
