Fingerprint T&A Advantages
y Veracity
Record and reflect staffs’ attendance conditions equally, correctly and promptly.
Checking on work attendance by passwords and cards (paper card, magnetic card,
IC card, etc); it is hard to avoid buddy-punching and cannot reflect the actual attendance condition. With the help of fingerprint recognition attendance, it is easy to solve all the problems like buddy punching, card loss or stolen and password forgetting. Thus, HR dispute is avoided and the justness of time attendance is materialized. y Convenience
It is more convenient to use fingerprint standalone units with no card reader or attendance cards needed, no worrying about cards loss or damage, no need to do system maintenance, and saving time and money.
Only placing enrolled finger on the sensor surface, system will check users automatically and record the correct time and checking status. y Full Function
The system can realize different functions such as attendance remark, calculation and report printing. The remark can be made for reasons such as business leave, absence, marriage holiday and etc.; the checking and calculation can be made in accordance with different time periods, departments, individual or combination due to various reasons for absence; the report generation and printing function can be realized perfectly. y Flexible Shift Maintenance
The software supports shift on week basis, rotation shifts etc. Various shifts, public holidays, individual leave and overtime are available to meet the complicated needs of every enterprise. y Standalone
The machine can work without connecting to PC, convenient in operation and no need to occupy any extra resource. y Network management
Many units can be connected through network via TCP/IP for easy management in central software.

Software operation flowchart
(Important chapter please read carefully.)
This software includes: System parameter, department management, staffer maintenance, shift management, staffer leave and statistic report etc. Then how to use this system in a right way? It is far from enough to understand only the function of each module but to know the connections between them and the system operation flowchart.
Thus, a correct report can be generated.
Software operation flowchart can be described in brief as follows:
1. System parameter
Set T&A rule, statistic rule, company name and leaving class.
2. Department management
Add, delete and modify departments.
3. Staffer maintenance
4. Shift management
Add, delete and modify staffer. Import and transfer staffer.
Set timetable and shift.
Allocate staffer shift or temporary shift.
5. Staffer schedule
6. Record collection
7. Exception management
Collect records from the unit or import the backup record file.
Deal with business leave/asking for leave/forgetting clock in/collective late.
8. Statistic report
Track, check and calculate records to generate time attendance report.
1. When the software is run for the first time, please set parameters including company name, time attendance rule, statistic rule for early, late and overtime etc. , leave class. When the setting is completed, it is usually not needed to be modified unless the management rules of this company changes.
2. Normally there are many departments in one company and all departments need
3
to be entered manually unlike the directly import of staffer. Department setting should be completed before staffer maintenance.
3. When the software is used for the first time, please make a Text file (*. txt) or MS
Excel file (*.xls) for company staffer in accordance with certain format. For the format, please refer to [Import staffer list] so that all staffer can be import to the system at one time. Staffer can be added, deleted, modified and transferred to new department during future use.
4. First add the proper timetable (from on-duty time to off-duty time) according to the company rule and then set shifts.
5. After the shift setting is completed, it will work until shift is allocated to staffer.
Each staffer can only have one shift. Please note the starting date of the shift. After the allocation of the shift, the arranged working date and time can be seen clearly for each staffer.
6. Transaction records are stored in the time attendance unit. Please download the records from the unit before report calculation. In addition, staff information and fingerprint templates can be uploaded and downloaded between the unit and the computer. Please refer to “Background management” for detailed information.
7. There is always staff away for business, asking for leave and forgetting clock happening in a company. Once it occurs, please deal with it in time in the software to ensure the correctness of the statistic report.
8. After all the above mentioned operation is done, the calculation of report can be operated. The report can calculate the time attendance status of all staffer or a certain staffer from a certain department in a certain time period.
In[Attendance Calculating and report], first please select the starting and ending date of the staffer, click “Calculate” and the system will calculate automatically and check the validity of the records. (There are some invalid records during the use of the unit. For instance, if one staffer presses the finger twice during a very short time period, one of the records will be regarded as invalid.) If there is any error in the software calculation, admin can also modify manually to ensure the correctness of the result
Please note: From the above flowchart, we can see that if there is an error in calculation report for one staff, the possible reasons are as follows:
Staffer shift or temporary shift is incorrect.
Exceptions such as staffer away for business/ask for leave/forgetting clock in/out is
4
incorrect.
Checking and calculation of transaction records is incorrect.

5.4.2 Timetable and Shift
The relationship between shift and timetables:
Shift setup should be done in two steps: First, setup necessary timetables. Second, setup shifts. One or more timetables can be included in one shift.
Timetable is the time period between On-duty and Off-duty required in the company rule. For instance, the company rule requires the working hours be 08:00-12:00 and
13:00-17:00; so 08:00-12:00 and 13:00-17:00 are two timetables. If such a shift needs to be setup, these two timetables should be setup first. Here, we use time table “morning” to indicate “08:00-12:00” and time table “afternoon” to indicate “13:00-17:00”; so two timetables have been setup. (Please refer to the following chapter for details of how to add time tables) and then we can add a shift such as “Normal shift” in which “shift cycle” and “cycle unit” will be setup. Then we should add two timetables - “morning” and
“afternoon” so that a shift setup is completed. Brief introduction is mentioned here for you to get a general picture of the relationship between timetable and shift. The details of shift setup will be found in the next two sections.
83
Timetable maintenance:

Finally click [Save] to confirm.
(Please note: Every item should be setup in timetables with no blank left.[Begin
Clock-in Time]and[End Clock-in Time]setup the valid time period for clock-in. Records out of this time range will be treated as invalid ones. For instance [Begin Clock-in Time] is
07:00 and [End Clock-in Time] is 13:00. If clock-in record is 07:01 or 12:59, they are valid records but if clock-in record is 06:59, it is invalid. Besides, [Begin Clock-in Time] and
[End Clock-in Time] can be more than one day (meaning [End Clock-in Time] can be before [Begin Clock-in Time]) but it can’t be longer than 24 hours.
84
[Late error allowance]means how many minutes after[On duty]are treated as
“late”,[Early error allowance]means how many minutes before[End Clock-in Time]are treated as “early”; [Count as work day]and[Count as work time XXX minutes]are used in calculating business leave, leave, absence and overtime.
Checking [Must C-In] and [Must C-out] or not will affect the result of calculation. If
[Must C-In] is checked and the timetable is included of Staff A’s shift, he will be either considered absence or treated according to [Not clock in count as late XXX minutes] in
[Parameter Settings]If he didn’t clock in or ask for leave. Otherwise, even if there is off duty record for him only, his attendance will be treated as normal.
