what it does
Five things,
done properly.
Most attendance tools stop at logging punches. ZT Biometrics carries the day all the way through — from the fingerprint at 06:42 to the boss-signed leave request, the shift exception, and the employment contract sitting under the employee record.
— 01
Every punch arrives as it happens.
A small Raspberry Pi agent on your LAN keeps a steady connection to each ZKTeco terminal and streams new fingerprint events straight up to the dashboard — no nightly sync, no manual exports, no rebooting devices to make them talk.
- ZKTeco F-series, K-series, MB-series and compatible
- Fingerprint, face and card verifications captured
- Resilient to LAN drops — punches replay when the link returns

One record per person, across every branch.
Link each ZKTeco device user to a real employee with shifts, contact details, branch assignment and photo. Manage thousands across multiple organizations from one console without losing scope or visibility.
- Multi-tenant — organizations, branches, shared devices
- Secure photo uploads and a rich-text agreement editor
- Soft-status flags for active / on-leave / suspended

Requests flow the chain, not your inbox.
Employees file an absence, late-arrival or custom request. It moves through Supervisor → Admin → Boss with full audit trail. Auto-deny quotas keep edge cases from leaking through.
- Built-in types: absence · early leave · late arrival
- Custom branch-scoped request types with end-date rules
- Bypass-supervisor flag for when the chain breaks

Drafted, signed, filed — in the same place.
Author contracts in a rich-text editor, render them to PDF for physical signing, scan and re-upload, then have the Boss set the effective and expiry dates. Stored against the employee record forever.
- Rich-text editor with inline photo support
- Boss-approved status gates contract activation
- Automatic expiry and archival as agreements supersede

Branch defaults, individual overrides.
Set shift windows per branch with per-weekday overrides (late opens on Sunday, anyone?). Override per employee for maternity, vacation or special arrangements — without losing the branch baseline.
- Per-weekday branch shifts (1=Mon … 7=Sun)
- Personal overrides with reason snapshots
- Schedule exceptions: holidays, day-offs, branch closures

under the hood
Built for the field,
sealed to the cloud.
Biometric devices speak a protocol the public web can't reach directly. An on-site agent sits inside your network, talks to each terminal natively, and pushes signed payloads to the cloud over HTTPS. The dashboard never waits on the device. The device never waits on the cloud.

Resilient by design
The on-site agent buffers punches locally while the link is down and replays them in order once the cloud is reachable again.
Authenticated edge
Each agent uses a per-organization API key. Payloads are scoped, signed and routed to the right tenant on arrival.
Always-on dashboard
An edge-delivered dashboard stays fast worldwide. No origin server to keep alive, no warm-up to wait through.
who sees what
A clear chain,
five rungs deep.
Role-based access maps to how your business actually decides things. Requests flow up the chain in stages — never leak across organizations, never bypass the boss.

Supervisor
First-stage reviewer for requests from their own branch's employees.
