Daily Time Details

Daily Time Details

I am really trying to like zPeople, but am struggling getting on board because of the simple things being made complex.  First, there is no simple clock-in/clock-out mechanism, facial recognition is required. I like this being a feature, but not mandatory.  People should be able to clock in using a PIN or Clock Number like in many organizations.

But now I am trying to figure out how to get details on an employees daily clock in/out activity.  There are two problems that I need help with.....

First, if an employee clocks in at 8am, then clocks out at 11pm... then clocks back in at 1pm and then out for the day at 4pm.  I can't see this activity.  I can only see the amount of payable hours.  Now if they have a Dr appointment and clocks in/out additionally during the day, I can't see that either.  Is there a way to print a detail showing all clock-ins/outs for employees during the day or week??


Second, there is no dashboard showing who is currently clocked in.  You can see Present vs Absent, but if the employee has clocked in/out, they will technically be present.. even though they are no longer clocked in.  There has to be a way to see who is currently CLOCKED IN.  This is important because we use this in case of fire or emergency evacuation, we can get a count of who should be accounted for.

Finally, the time clock kiosk doesn't seem to allow/show when people are clocking out for lunch/breaks, etc.  Nor does it indicate when someone who is already clocked out attempts to clock out again.  There is no indication of error.

These are very basic things that I don't see and are deal-breakers for this app....unless I'm missing something.
