What biometric devices are supported?

We support major biometric manufacturers including fingerprint scanners, facial recognition systems, iris scanners, RFID card readers, and palm vein scanners. Our team can recommend the best hardware for your specific environment and security requirements.

How does GPS tracking work for remote employees?

The mobile app uses GPS to verify employee location during check-in/out, with configurable radius settings for approved locations. Features include geofencing, photo verification, and offline mode with data synchronization when connectivity is restored.

Can the system handle multiple shifts and locations?

Yes, the system supports unlimited shifts, locations, and time zones. You can configure different policies, pay rates, and reporting structures for each location while maintaining centralized management and visibility.

How accurate are the overtime calculations?

Overtime calculations are 100% accurate based on your configured rules, labor laws, and employee contracts. The system handles complex scenarios including daily vs weekly overtime, multiple rates, and different calculation methods.

What happens if the biometric device fails?

The system includes backup authentication methods such as PIN codes, RFID cards, or mobile app check-ins. Administrators can manually record attendance and the system maintains full audit trails for all backup methods used.

How does integration with payroll work?

Attendance data flows directly into payroll calculations with real-time updates for hours worked, overtime, deductions, and bonuses. This eliminates manual data entry and ensures payroll accuracy with complete audit trails.

What security measures protect attendance data?
