How to Set Up User Roles in Time Clock Device

Overview

User roles in the Time Clock Device help in managing access levels for employees. A user-defined role allows administrators to assign specific menu access rights to employees beyond the normal user authentication function.


Default User Roles in Time Clock Device

  1. Admin:

    • Has full access to all menu functions in the time clock device.

    • Can manage users, settings, and reports.

  2. Enroller:

    • Has limited administrative rights to enroll new employees’ biometric data (fingerprints, facial recognition, or RFID cards).

    • Cannot access other device settings, reports, or user management.

  3. Normal User:

    • Can only authenticate attendance using fingerprint, password, or card.

    • Cannot access device settings or reports.


Prerequisites for Setting Up User Roles

Before assigning roles, ensure:

  1. The Time Clock is online and connected.

  2. Employees are synced to the Time Clock from the web interface.

  3. All users are initially assigned a default role with full menu access.

  4. A new user role must be created to restrict access if needed.


Steps to Set Up User Roles in Time Clock Device

1. Log in to Your Account

2. Navigate to “Employees” on Dashboard

3. Select the Employee

4. Edit Employee Details

  • Click on Edit Employee and navigate to the Attendance Section.

  • Under Time Clock Privileges, choose the desired User Role (Admin or Enroller or Normal User).

4. Assign Time Clock Password

  • Set a Time Clock Password for the employee if required.

5. Enable Sync to Time Clock

  • Turn on the Sync Clocks toggle before saving changes.


Important Notes

  • User roles should not be created directly in the physical Time Clock.

  • Only administrators should have access to manage device settings.

  • If an employee’s role is changed, sync the clock to update permissions.

  • Enrollers can only register biometrics; they cannot edit or delete employee data.
