🏷️Case

Even after configuring the settings above, if the fingerprint scanner still doesn't connect to ByteHR:

Please turn the scanner off and then on again.

Step 3: ByteHR Retrieves Data from the Fingerprint Scanner.

Once the setup in Step 2 is complete, the system will show that the configured Fingerprint Scanner is Online.
The system pulls data from the fingerprint scanner in real time into the Timesheet.
If the fingerprint scanner is turned off, the system will show that the fingerprint scanner is offline.

🏷️Case

If the fingerprint scanner has not been previously connected to ByteHR.

ByteHR will only update timesheets for the past 31 days using data from fingerprint scanners.

To have ByteHR update data beyond one month, regenerate timesheets. The system will use historical data from the fingerprint scanner to update the timesheets according to the selected time period.

📃Note

Once the fingerprint scan data has been retrieved into the ByteHR system, the admin can check the fingerprint scan information in the Reports menu -> Standard Reports -> Time Attendance Reports -> Location Timestamp
