Clocking in and out at the terminal (PIN)

Clocking at the terminal

At the tablet terminal, employees clock in within seconds — without their own account, just with a selection and a PIN.

Clocking in and out

1. Select the employee: tap them in the list (or search), or enter the employee number — depending on the setting.
2. Enter the PIN (4 digits).
3. Choose the action: Clock in, start/end a break, or Clock out.

A short confirmation (and optional vibration) confirms the booking.

Personal overview

After signing in, the terminal briefly shows the key figures: time worked today, weekly hours with balance, the running break, and the next shift. It then returns to the selection screen automatically.

What happens in the background

Whether and how clocked times are counted depends on the recording mode (Clock/Hybrid). Breaks are accounted for according to the configured DACH break rules. More on this: Recording modes: plan / clock / hybrid.

Security

After several incorrect PIN entries, input is locked for a few minutes. The PIN is known only to the employee — how they get and regenerate it is described in Getting and managing your kiosk PIN.

Tip

Remember to clock out! If it is forgotten, the same safeguards apply as in the app — see Forgetting to clock out and the safety net.
