There are four methods to process timestamp data into a Timesheet:

  1. Upload Text Files: Uploading Timestamp data using Text Files. See how to Upload Timesheet - Text Files at this LINK.
  2. Auto Upload: Use this method if you do not want to keep Auto Sync enabled 24/7.
  3. Auto Sync: When employees clock in using a fingerprint scanner connected to ByteHR, the system automatically retrieves  and processes Sign In/Out Timestamps.

    See how to use Auto Sync at this LINK.

  4. eCheckin: When employees clock in using eCheckin, the system  processes the data into real-time Timestamp.
