When creating Clock Kiosks in VeriTime, you can choose from six different kiosk types.
Three of them are Portal kiosks, and three are In/Out kiosks.
Each one of these types launches a different ‘variation’ of the VeriTime Web Clock.
- The Portal – ID/PIN Kiosk: with this Web Clock, users enter their own Aesop ID and PIN # into the fields provided on the Web Clock to identify themselves to VeriTime. Then the users click on the [Clock In] button to clock into their shifts … or… the [Clock Out] button to clock out of their shifts.
- The Portal – Scan Kiosk: this Web Clock requires you to connect a USB Barcode Scanner to a computer. Then, you must create User Barcodes and distribute them to your users. The Web Clock displays the message, “Waiting for a Scan…“. The users will be able to scan their VeriTime barcodes across the scanner connected to that VeriTime ‘Kiosk’ Computer to identify themselves to VeriTime (i.e.–to “Log in”), and then they will click on the [Clock In] button to clock into their shifts .. or… the [Clock Out] button to clock out of their shifts.
- The Portal – Scan or ID/PIN Kiosk: this Web Clock displays the message, “Waiting for a Scan…” alongside another ‘message’, “Login using your ID & PIN“. This kiosk type is ideal for users that may have forgotten their barcodes … in which case they can log in using their Aesop ID & Pin, and then click on the [Clock In] button to clock into their shifts … or… the [Clock Out] button to clock out of their shifts. This is the recommended kiosk type. If using any of the Portal kiosks, your users should use User barcodes.
- The In/Out – ID/PIN Kiosk: with this Web Clock, users enter their own Aesop ID and PIN # into the fields provided on the Web Clock to identify themselves to VeriTime. If they have only one Position and Time Event Type, VeriTime will automatically clock them in. If they have more than one option, they will be prompted to specify before clicking “In.”
- The In/Out – Scan Kiosk: this Web Clock is the one that displays the message, “Waiting for a Scan…“. The difference between this one, and #2 and #3 (above) is that this one actually scans users in/out of their shifts without requiring the users to actually click on a [Clock In] button, or on a [Clock Out] button if the user has only one Position and Time Event Type as an option, or if the user scans a User Combo barcode that is built specifically for one Position.
- The In/Out – Scan or ID/PIN Kiosk: this Web Clock displays the message, “Waiting for a Scan…“ alongside another ‘message’, “Login using your ID & PIN”. This kiosk type is ideal for users that may have forgotten their barcodes … in which case they can log in using their Aesop ID & Pin. This kiosk differs from the Portal – Scan or ID/PIN Kiosk in that users will be automatically clocked in if they have only one Position or Time Event Type as an option, or if they scan a User Combo Barcode. If they have more than one option, they will be prompted to specify before clicking “In.”
