Introduction
To cater to employees who are always on the go and those with flexible working arrangements, TimeTec Attendance offers 4 different ways for users to clock their attendance from a smartphone. The options available for personal clocking in TimeTec Attendance mobile include:
GPS Geolocation
Beacon
NFC
Wifi Checkpoint
Process
1. To clock your attendance, go to Attendance Module > Home > Clocking
2. Select your Clocking Type; Clock-In, Clock-Out, Break-Out, Resume-In, OT-In or OT-Out. This step is optional, depending on your company’s policy. By default, the system will determine the clocking type automatically and insert the time into the relevant clocking column based on the schedule set.
3. Select Work Code (if any)
This step is also optional, depending on your company’s policy. The work code list is only available if your admin has added the work code list in TimeTec Attendance.
4. Choose your clocking method by swiping the clocking method options left or right; GPS Geolocation (orange color), Beacon (blue color with letter B), NFC (blue color with letter N) or Wifi Checkpoint (blue colored signal icon). Please note that NFC clocking is available for Android smartphones only. The availability of the clocking method options is based on your company’s permission. Therefore, please check with your company if other clocking options are not enabled.
