Employee attendance management is a part of every business, even small and medium-sized businesses. Employee attendance has allowed managers and HR departments to better monitor and track employee time, as well as calculate salaries and other benefits. Keeping track of employee attendance is essential for improving a company’s efficiency in employee management. In today’s world, companies may need to allow employees to work from home or distant locations. Keeping track of attendance can be a difficult undertaking. Odoo has a dedicated attendance management module called Attendance that includes all of the necessary features and tools for effective attendance management. Any company regardless of size must keep track of attendance for successful employee management.

Check-in/Check-out

The Odoo attendance module makes check-in and out of work easy.

The Check-in/Checkout key is located on the dashboard, and you may use it to check-in or out instantly. The employee’s login information is stored in the Odoo database, Odoo will quickly recognize them and direct them to their appropriate Check-In page. The dashboard’s Check-in/Check-out section offers real-time tracking and will show you how much time you’ve worked and how much time you’ve taken off.

Kiosk Mode 

Selecting the Kiosk Mode will direct you to two check-in options. The kiosk mode allows employees to check-in fast and simple.

Employees have the option to check-in either by scanning the badge or using identity cards to check-in.

Scan to Check In
