Permission behavior

• Administrator access allows full time clock control, including menu access, biometric enrollment, proximity card setup, PIN assignment, and device configuration.

• Employee access allows clock in and clock out using configured authentication methods.

• Only one active Everyone rule can exist at a time. Creating a new Everyone rule automatically ends the previous one.

• Time Clock Permissions control which devices users can access. Reporting Hours determines whether users are allowed to clock in or out.
