Fingercheck

Since Fingercheck is hosted on the cloud, a connection must be established between your clocks and our servers for your clock to be able to upload your punch data successfully. This integral connection is why we designed an automatic alert system to alert you whenever your clock is offline for more than an hour. While your clock is offline, your employees can still punch in and out uninterrupted. Their punches will be uploaded after the connection is repaired.

Go to the SETUP tab &gt; System &gt; Scheduled Tasks.

In the Scheduled Task Information section:

1. In the Code field, enter an abbreviated name for the task.
2. In the Description field, enter a short descriptive name.
 Together, the Code and Description fields make up the full name as displayed in other areas of Fingercheck.
3. Leave the Job Status field set to Scheduled.

In the Task Actions section, define the task:

1. Click Add.
2. From the Job Action drop-down list, select CLNO - Clock Notification Offline.
3. Leave the Sequence field at 0.

1. Click Add.
2. In the Start Date field, enter the date you want to start the task.
