Auto Generate Employees Attendance Reports (or Make it Easier)

We generate employees attendance reports every two weeks. Every time, we need to go the report, select the dates, select the columns to be included, click apply, then download the report. Then repeat that for every single employee. This is really very time consuming and just repetitive unnecessary work. 
Can this be improved please? 

Still manual but less steps: for example, open the Employee Report -> Select the dates and the columns to be included -> then select all the employees to generate the report for -> this way it's just one time work that generates for ALL needed employees instead of doing that separately for every single employee. 

More Automated way: for us, we know we have a fixed pay schedule so we generate the reports every two weeks on a Monday. It's always the same columns and same employees and the report runs on the last two weeks. Can't this just be automated where it generates the reports by itself and then send it to an email address or manually go to the Employee report and just manually click generate report? 

In both solutions, it's just very minimal work instead of receptive time consuming work.
