A reporting gap is not an absence verdict.
Start with the employee and the linked device in People. Check the last available reporting time against the period you are reviewing before drawing a conclusion from an empty day.
- Confirm the right Windows device is linked to the employee.
- Ask about connectivity, device changes or agreed work away from the computer.
- Record missing evidence separately; do not turn it into zero productivity.
Test in your demo: disconnect and reconnect a representative device. Inspect what arrives, what remains missing and how the reviewer sees the gap. Do not assume guaranteed offline recovery.
