How to Use an Attendance Recorder-Help Center

[TOC]

I. How to set attendance policy for the attendance machine

After associating the attendance machine to WeCom, you can set the attendance methods in the attendance policy to “Smart Attendance Machine” or “Mobile + Smart Attendance Machine”.
Note: Once the attendance methods in the attendance machine are selected, all devices will be available by default, and all attendance machines will be associated automatically.

On the mobile’s message page, administrators can click the “+” icon in the upper right corner - Scan, then scan the attendance machine’s QR code to associate the device.

On the mobile, go to [Workspace - Attendance - Management - You can create new policy/edit existing policies], then select the attendance methods;

Or, go to [Admin Console - App Management - Attendance - Clock-in/out Settings - Add Policy/Edit Existing policies] and select the attendance methods.

Additionally, you can quickly configure attendance policy directly on the attendance machine. Path: [Mobile - Workspace - Attendance - Attendance Machine - Device Details - Attendance Policy - Configured Attendance Policy - Edit - Configure Attendance Policy of Device]. You can create new attendance policy or select other existing ones.

II. Using a Bluetooth attendance recorder

Before punching via a Bluetooth attendance recorder, make sure:
1. You have enabled Bluetooth on your phone and allow WeCom to access the Bluetooth.

2. Your phone is near the Bluetooth attendance recorder.

III. Face recognition is available on Bluetooth attendance recorders

Admins can opt to enable face recognition.
Once this option is enabled, members need to get verified via face recognition before punching in/out.
To enable face recognition:
1. In “Attendance (Punch)” -> “Manage”, select a punch record, and select either “Smart Attendance Recorder” or “App + Smart Attendance Recorder” in Punch Mode.

2. In “Settings”, tap “Camera and face recognition” and enable “Face recognition”. Tap “Face information management”, select members whom you want to enroll their face information, and tap “Notify members to enroll”.
