What are badges?<\/h5>\n

Badges are used in the system to identify which employee punched. A badge can be a physical card or fob carried by an employee. They can also be a virtual badge number that an employee is assigned for use with a biometric terminal or web punch. Every employee in the system needs to have a badge.<\/p>\n

How do badges get created?<\/h5>\n

The majority of badges are created when an employee is first entered into the system. Using the \u201cQuick Add\u201d button from either the Employee Profile, or the Implementation Portal, allows you to create an employee along with a badge. In the case of biometric or web punch employees, their employee code will be used as their badge.<\/p>\n

Badges can also be created outside of \u201cQuick Add\u201d, in this Badge Editor screen. A badge created here can then be assigned to an employee in the Employee Profile. For example if new proximity cards are purchased and need to be assigned to an employee who already exists in the system.<\/p>\n
