However, if you buy a time attendance machine of poor quality, there will be a phenomenon of losing employee swipe records, and this kind of trouble is difficult to solve, and it is more troublesome. With backup battery. But there is no need to choose a machine with too complicated functions, because of the many functions, the quality will also be affected.

3. Fingerprint attendance machine

3. Mistakes in attendance machine selection:

Many attendance users see that other companies are using proximity card attendance machines, so they buy one, and the requirements are relatively simple. As long as they can handle simple personnel management and attendance, other functions are not available. , So began to choose the attendance machine. Of course, the goal is the cheapest time attendance machine, but when you buy it, you will find that this time attendance machine does not make attendance simple, but a series of troubles occur: some shifts cannot be handled, and the personnel clerks must use manual Remember; sometimes the attendance machine fails, and the card cannot be swiped; sometimes the employee ’s attendance record is lost. At the end, the employee knows that the attendance opportunity lost the record, so if it is really lost, it is said to be lost. The personnel clerk did not know whether it was true or false, and finally lost the attendance machine and used the clock. So many companies have formed this consciousness: it is not good to use the induction card time attendance machine, it is better to use a punch clock. In fact, it is not the attendance machine that can handle various shifts. The attendance machine is only used to record the employee's card swiping records. The data is processed through the attendance software. Therefore, some shifts cannot be processed with simple function attendance software, so , Attendance machine ≠ handle all attendance.

friendly reminder:

1. Before purchasing the attendance and attendance machine, it is necessary to explain the attendance shift to the supplier, to see whether the software of the attendance machine can handle this shift, because some shifts can not handle the software that comes with the general attendance machine, and the function of summarizing the attendance data Whether it can be counted in time, and whether the query of abnormal attendance data can be timely and convenient.

2. Choose a time attendance machine with a backup battery. Some time attendance machines do not have a backup battery.

3. Regardless of the functional requirements for attendance, be sure to choose an attendance machine with stable performance and good quality, otherwise it will cost money and trouble, and the boss thinks you are not doing well.
