The Time and Attendance feature can be configured to know when Employees enter and leave the work premises.
Click on the switch to turn Time & Attendance feature ON or OFF. Following options will be enabled when the feature is turned ON -
Mode Type:
Click on the box to select Mode Type from the dropdown list. Invixium Devices support three modes to configure time and attendance:
-
Manual
When Manual mode is selected, the Employee needs to press the desired function key (Fkey) for T&A Entry. If FKey is pressed, then the Device will do T&A authentication, otherwise, the Device will ignore T&A authentication and will only perform normal authentication. Selected FKey will be logged into the transaction log in the case of T&A authentication.
-
Manual Fixed
In this mode, the first Employee needs to select any FKey (i.e. Check In, Check out, Break-In and Break-Out, etc.). The next Employee does not need to press FKey for T&A Entry. If the next Employee selects another FKey, then FKey changes to the newly selected one. Activated FKey will be logged in the transaction logs after authentication.
-
Fixed by Device
In this mode, there is no need to press any FKey for T&A operations. The FKey will be logged based on the given schedule time for that FKey. For each FKey, you can set different time schedules. FKey (i.e. Check In, Check Out, Break-In and Break-Out, etc.) will be activated by the scheduled time. In Fixed by Device mode, Employees can still use the manual mode functionality. They can overwrite the scheduled FKey by manually pressing the FKey.
Strict F-Key
Click on the checkbox to enable or disable strict F-Key.
Only T&A Pages
Click on the checkbox to enable or disable the feature. Enabling the feature will apply the F-Keys only to the Time & Attendance related pages.
Strict Job Code
Click on the checkbox to enable or disable the feature.
If the feature is enabled, it becomes mandatory to select the Job Code on the device at the time of authentication while selecting the Function key.
If the feature is disabled for a Function key, then the previous Job Code (selected by the same employee in the last 24 hours) will be considered.
A list of T&A settings and default Fkeys with their function names, images, and Job Codes will be displayed as below -
Enable the F-Keys by inserting text to “Add Text” as follows -
After enabling the F-Key, you can select the authentication mode for the F-Key from the option located just below the F-Key text. Select one of the following from the dropdown list:
-
All
If this option is selected, all the available authentication modes - Face, Employee ID, and QR Card will be displayed on the device screen, allowing the user to choose their preferred mode for authentication. The modes will be displayed as follow:
-
Face
If this option is selected, the device camera will automatically open, allowing the user to authenticate using facial recognition.
-
Employee ID
If this option is selected, the user will be asked to enter the Employee ID on the device screen.
-
QR Card
If this option is selected, the device camera will automatically open, allowing the user to authenticate using the QR Card.
NOTE The "QR Card" mode will be displayed only if the "QR-Code Authentication"feature is ON from Devices >> General Settings option.

Intelligent F-Keys
Click on the checkbox to enable or disable the feature.
NOTE Before enabling this feature, IXM WEB Server on the Device should be configured.
|
This feature is used to prevent double clocking or illogical clocking at a network level during authentication. To prevent this, we have introduced the Intelligent Function Key Module which gets the valid combination of F-Keys based on the last successful F-Key entry from transaction logs on the IXM.
Check Out:
Reset time (In Hours, max 24) which is considered as the duration for resetting check-in / check-out Fkeys.
Break Out:
Reset time (In Hours, max 24) which is considered as the duration for resetting break-in / break-out Fkeys. Break Out hours 0 means no limit on break time. Break-out hours should be less than check-out hours.
