Before employees can use a time clock to Punch In and Out, they must be enrolled on the clock.
There are two ways to add an employee to clock:
Add the employee on the clock first and update their enrollment in Avanti.
Add the employee enrollment in Avanti first, then update their enrollment on the clock.
Additional Information
We recommend adding the employee in Employee Clock Data before adding them to the clock. If the employee starts work before they’re added in Avanti, you may need to add them to the clock first. Go to Adding an Employee Directly on a Clock to learn more.
This will guide you through adding an employee to Employee Clock Data in Avanti, then enrolling the employee on the clock. Employees can verify their identity by:
Facial Recognition
Fingerprint Recognition
Swipe cards - using a 125kHz HID card
Passwords
What You’ll Need Before Starting
Determine the employee’s PIN, the unique identifier for the employee on the clocks.
Have an administrator with access to add the user to the clock.
Have the employee, if using biometric identification (fingerprints/face).
Have the employee’s proximity card, if using proximity cards.
