# Clock In / Out at a Kiosk Using QR Code

If your organization enables QR code clocking, you can clock in or clock out at a kiosk by scanning a QR code from the WorkEasy Mobile App. The kiosk reads the QR code and records your time automatically.

## How to clock in or out using a QR code

1. Open the **WorkEasy Mobile App**.
2. Tap **QR Code** to open the **QR code screen**. This screen may open automatically when the app starts, or you can access it from **My Portal** in the left navigation menu. ![](https://cdn.us.document360.io/88d7ebef-752e-45d9-95e1-ee13bd7279c5/Images/Documentation/image-5CFU2P51.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-01T16%3A12%3A58Z&se=2026-11-01T17%3A12%3A58Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=fLM1vdizICxb4ITBURIiWmHlJLPzBjsL8x1kBym1yzI%3D)
3. Go to the kiosk where you want to clock in or out.
4. Tap **Scan QR Code** on the kiosk screen.
5. Hold your mobile device in front of the kiosk camera so the QR code is visible.

The kiosk scans the code and proceeds to record a clock-in or clock-out, or prompts the employee to select the clock action

## How the kiosk determines clock actions

The kiosk determines whether you are clocking in or clocking out based on your Clock In/Out type found within the reporting hours configuration.

Depending on the setup, the kiosk may automatically determine the clock action or ask you to choose the action.

## Where you can use QR code clocking

QR code clocking is supported on:

- Tablet kiosks using the iOS or Android WorkEasy Software Time Kiosk App.

QR code clocking is not supported on:

- Web kiosks
- Device kiosks such as Xenio or M2000

## Troubleshooting

If the kiosk cannot scan your QR code, you may see one of the following messages.

- **Camera permission is required to scan QR codes**
- **Invalid QR code format**
- **Cannot verify your identity. Please try again or contact your manager**

If the issue continues, contact your manager or system administrator.
