Barcode/Swipe card or biometrics mode for clock-in/out

Functionality similar to kiosk mode but with the ability to generate punches from either a badge or something like a thumbprint. We have hundreds of workers badging in/out of a single control point at one time, and delays can cause work and time recording issues. This would also prevent buddy-badging.

    RFID or QR would be great and quick. We currently already have employee badges.

    Hi Team,

    We are currently looking into what it would take to have APIs available to integrate with other systems that have RFID or Biometric capabilities and we are designing a kiosk mode for our FM mobile app that will have photo capture.

    Please let me know if you have any questions.

    For us, an acceptable alternative would be to have the tablet snap a photo (in kiosk mode), and optionally present it on another screen for verification/review
