Devices

Devices are also known as Time Clocks, clock card machines or punch clocks and is a device that records when an employee clocks in and out of work. HRplus also supports a virtual clock and mobile punches. On HRplus, time can also be recorded when an employee punches in and out for their morning break, afternoon break and lunch.

These devices work together with a Time Clock Downloader web application which polls the data/punches from the clock at set intervals and then transfers this data into the HRplus application.

There are several steps involved in the setup of each device as outlined below:

  1. A Time Clock setup meeting is scheduled by an HRplus project manager with the client and HRplus IT personnel. During this session, the following items are covered:
    1. Clocks are checked and tested for faults before being sent to the client.
    2. The time clock web app is installed and configured where applicable. Network requirements are reviewed for the clock communication.
    3. Clients are sent user and installation manuals and are shown the operation of the device.
    4. Tests are performed to ensure that the clocks are communication with the HRplus app.
  2. Add the Device to Device List.
  3. Link the Device to your company.
  4. Map Device to Schedules.
  5. Setup Device Monitoring.
