Introduction
An Administrator plays an important role in managing users in FingerTec device such as enrolling a
new user into the device. However, this process can be a hassle when the assigned Administrator is
not available or the fact that the device is located in an area which is inaccessible to the
Administrator.
Benefits
For companies that are using TimeTec TA, cloud-based attendance solution, we have just introduced
a new feature whereby an Admin of FingerTec device can be assigned via TimeTec TA to manage
situations like these to save time & energy, and to make sure that nothing gets delayed in an
absence of an administer. The assignment of device Admin can be done online quickly and easily.
*Note: Only users with an Administrator role in TimeTec TA can change the User Privilege.
Process
Below are the simple steps on how to change User Privilege in FingerTec Devices via TimeTec TA:
1. Go to Device tab and then click on Assign Users to Device.
2. Search the Name or User ID that you wish to assigned the role to.
3. Click on Edit button and then change the Privilege to Admin.

5. The next step is to upload the updated user information into the devices. Go to Device tab and
then click on FingerTec Terminal.
6. On the Manage Terminal tab, tick on the device(s) that you wish to update its User Privilege
