3 1.0 Clock IN and Clock OUT The time clock has two methods of employee verification: the employee fingerprint template or a 4-digit employee PIN. These methods of verification are essential for the integrity of the punches. The prevention of the use of false IDs is extremely helpful in making sure that an employee has fulfilled their scheduled work. The recommended verification method is the fingerprint sensor. However, some employees may work in environments that may hinder the readability of their fingerprint, such as kitchen employees, and a PIN can be used as an alternative.

The clocking IN or OUT from break or lunch is nearly identical to the clocking IN or OUT procedure at the start or end of a shift. The employee merely needs to press the appropriate icon to indicate a Lunch or Break punch, rather than a regular punch. Figure 7 - Lunch and Break Punch Screens Figure 8 - Lunch Punch Screens Depending on the policies of your organization, you may have the ability to punch for either lunch or break, or both. Follow the process illustrated on the screen. It will continue in an identical manner to the regular punch process, after the Lunch or Break selection is made. Page 4 of 11
