The attendance feature allows you to select any device (computer, tablet, phone) and use it as an employee punch clock or terminal.

To start, simply head over to the Terminals page in the HR module.

From here you'll be able to create or manage any active terminals.

Adding a new terminal

Click the green button "New Terminal" to create a new one. Then, give it a recognizable name and click "Add".

You can add as many terminals as you want.

Setting the terminal live

Log into your Piecemeal account from the device you want to turn into a punch terminal. (Warning: we suggest creating a new user solely dedicated to this function, which would only have access authorization to the Terminal. 👤 Thus, the login credentials of this user can be shared with team members in order to to restart the terminal themselves if necessary and your location information will remain secure.)

Head to the Terminals page, then click "Launch" on the terminal you want to use. If you have no terminal listed, please follow the procedure mentioned above.

This will automatically change your screen into a terminal from which your employees can Clock In & Out using their PIN. You can manage employee PINs directly in your employee personal files.
