Guide

In ERPNext, employee check in and out are needed in order to validated the attendance of an employee on a given shift. If "Auto Attendance Enabled" is ticked on a Shift Type, the system will look into the Employee Checkin and Out to compute the total working hours of an Employee.

If your biometric device is not connected with ERPNext, time in and out can be encoded using the Employee Checkin or upload using the Data Import tool.

Using Data Import Tool

3. On Action, select Insert or Update.
