Clocking Events by Biometrics

Clocking Events by Biometrics is a tool that allows clocking in through the Employees' biometrics, this way of clocking in is safer and faster than other ways. Clocking events are made through the senior X platform and can be done offline, that is, it is not necessary to be connected to the internet for the appointment to be made. Biometric collection is done in a decentralized manner, and biometric validation takes place locally.

Configure the application of Clocking Events by Biometrics

To configure the application, you need to access the Configuration screen, which aims to parameterize the necessary information for the application to work correctly. On this screen, you will inform the necessary data for the application to communicate correctly with Mobility 2.0 .

How to fill in the information on the Setup screen

For the system to work correctly, it is necessary to fill in the fields available on the Settings screen. To do this, perform the following steps:

1. Access the Configuration screen;
2. Add information from: CNPJ (National Register of Legal Entities): fill in this field with the CNPJ of the branch whose branch you want to search for employees. This information can be consulted on the Web Manager's Branches screen; Observation This information is also recorded in the Clocking Event to generate traceability of where the event took place. Tenant of the senior X platform : this information you receive when purchasing Senior's services. Tenant example: senior. senior X Platform Tenant Domain : inform the domain to which the application belongs. Example: senior.com.br Observation The information entered in the fields Tenant of the senior X platform and Tenant Domain of the senior X platform will be used to carry out the necessary communications with the senior X platform. Access key : inform the access key of the application registered on the senior X platform. appSecret : inform the secret generated when creating the senior X application.
3. After entering all the information, click Save so that all your changes are saved.

How to register and consult fingerprints

In order to be able to clock in, first of all, it is necessary to register the fingerprints on the Fingerprint Registration screen. The screen, in turn, aims to provide a way to register or change the fingerprints of employees. To perform one of these actions, the Fingerprint Registration screen is divided into two parts, the first screen being called Fingerprint Registration: Employees and the second Fingerprint Registration: Employee.

Fingerprint Registration: Employees

This screen has a list of employees at the branch showing Name, PIS (Social Integration Plan) and Registration Status, enabling the editing of this information.

• To search for the Employee through their code, use the Code filter;
• To search for a Employee by name, use the Employee filter;
• To search for Employees through their PIS, use the PIS filter;
• To search for Employees through their biometric status, the Digital field must be filled in with one of the available options: Registered, Not Registered, Partially and All.

Fingerprint status:

• Registered : when the Employee has the registration of 2 (two) fingerprints;
• Partially : when the Employee has only 1 (one) fingerprint registered;
• Not registered : when the Employee does not have registered fingerprints.

Fingerprint Registration: Employee

When accessing the screen, the Employee's name will appear after the screen name. For example: Fingerprint Registration: Employee Name.

This screen presents the option of registering two fingerprints, Digital 1 and Digital 2 .

The purpose of the buttons is to collect the fingerprint of one of the Employee's fingers. When clicking on the button, a message will be displayed instructing the collection of the fingerprint and blocking any action on the screen.

To register a fingerprint, follow these steps:

1. Access the Fingerprint Registration screen;
2. Edit the employee who wants to register the fingerprint;
3. On the Employee Registration screen, click the Register Fingerprint 1 button to collect the employee's first fingerprint;
4. Still on the Employee Registration screen, click the Register Fingerprint 2 button to register the second fingerprint;
   
5. Click Save to keep the fingerprints registered or Cancel to discard the fingerprints.

How to list Clocking Events

The system provides a way for you to list the clocking events made in the last 90 (ninety) days, being able to filter by specific fields to have a better visualization.

List the tags using the filters available on the screen:

• Filter a employee's clocking event using the Employee filter
• The Start Date and End Date filter will filter the list of appointments bringing appointments that occurred between the beginning and end date.
• The Only not synchronized field is filled with a checkbox , which must be selected, when the user intends to check the time stamps that were not synchronized. You can view this information just below, under Clocking Events Made, in column #.

How to perform a Clocking Event

The clocking event is done through the Clocking Event screen, which aims to present information for punching time to Employees. The screen informs the time and, when the Employee performs an event through the reader, the event receipt is presented. For Employees who work intermittently at the Branches and/or have been transferred, and do not have their biometrics registered at the Branch, it is possible to use the option Can't find your fingerprint? , and inform your code to make the clocking event. In addition, the screen displays the last event with the name of the Employee who performed it.

To make the markup, it's very simple:

1. Click on the Make Clocking Event button to activate the reader that will collect the biometrics to perform the event.

Synchronization Routines

Retrieve employee information from the cloud

The routine of Retrieving information from Cloud Employees is focused on searching for information from Employees in the cloud, in order to keep client information up to date. The information that the routine brings to the client is:

• For employees linked to the CNPJ of the Branch, the routine compares the CNPJ entered in the client configuration with the CNPJ registered for the Branch in the cloud;
• The previously collected biometrics that are stored in the cloud;
• The update of this routine is done automatically.

Retrieve branch information

Routine responsible for collecting branch information in the cloud. It runs during application startup and when saving settings to store timezone information to be used by other routines.

Synchronization of Tags

Routine responsible for synchronizing events that have been performed offline.

Routine for cleaning events and sanitizing the base

Routine responsible for sanitizing the database, avoiding unnecessary growth of the local base.

The routine's main function is to remove synchronized events that have passed 90 days since they were performed and to erase possible fingerprint capture failures and other data that do not need to be used by the application.

Platform Permission

The Configuration, Fingerprint Registration and Events Made screens can only be accessed through authentication on the senior X platform.

The user performing the authentication must have the necessary permissions to access the screens, namely:

• Client Mobility - Biometric registration;
• Client Mobility - Configuration;
• Client Mobility - Events made;

The application that is registered in senior X on the Applications screen needs to receive the following permissions:

• biometricPattern (res://senior.com.br/hcm/pontomobile/entities/biometricPattern): allows editing, deleting, including and viewing;
• clientData (res://senior.com.br/hcm/pontomobile/clientData): is a permission;
• Collaborator (res://senior.com.br/hcm/pontomobile/entities/employee): allows viewing;
• Branch (res://senior.com.br/hcm/pontomobile/entities/company): allows viewing;
• Clocking (res://senior.com.br/hcm/pontomobile/clockingEvent): this is a permission.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is the time to make the event?

The event through biometrics is linked to the desired level of reliability, therefore, the more details the system must verify in the Employee/user's biometrics, the longer the event will take. In addition, the number of people who will be present at a station for the verification to be carried out is taken into account.

How do I install the application on the machine?

Application installation is done through the installer available in the downloads area. When accessing it, just follow the installation steps.

Do I always need to update my application?

The application has an updater, therefore, once installed it will update itself automatically, avoiding the need to perform a new installation. This update works as follows: for 7 (seven) days, after the date on which the last version is released, the system will try 3 (three) times a day to download and update the new version. If the system fails to update itself in that time, it will be necessary to update manually.

How to check the events made in the client?

1. Access the Events Made screen; It is
2. Apply the desired filters to display the tags according to the filters.

How do I clock in without my fingerprint registered locally?

1. Access the ​Clocking Event screen and click on the text Can't find your fingerprint?
2. In the Employee Code field, enter the desired employee code;
3. Click on the Make Event button to activate the reader that will collect the biometrics to perform the event.
