Check-in modes
| Mode | How it works |
|---|---|
| Geofence | The phone must be inside the location's radius, allowing for GPS accuracy. The distance is shown if you are outside. |
| Office network | Check-in is accepted from the office's internet connection. |
| Anywhere | Any place is accepted — for field and remote staff. |
| Biometric machine | Punches come from a fingerprint or face machine; see Connect an attendance machine. |
A location can allow several modes, and can require a live selfie with each punch.
From punches to a day
- Each punch is assigned to a day using the shift window, so a night shift lands on the day it started.
- A second tap within a few seconds (10 by default) is ignored and you see when the first was recorded.
- The day becomes Present, Half day, Absent, Weekly off, Holiday, On leave, Work from home or On duty. Work from home and On duty count as present and fully paid.
- Approved leave rewrites those days as On leave automatically.
- Once a payroll run is approved, the days behind it are locked; corrections after that are deliberate.
