Setting Up a Manager Device

If you want to be assigned a higher authority level such as “Manager” or “Supervi-
sor”, you can request the System Administrator to update your device to become
a Manager level device. The administrator will configure the TimeTec server to up-
grade the mobile ID of your iPhone/iPad to that of a higher authority, referred to
as a Manager Device. Now your staff can use your iPhone/iPad to login with their
personal username and password to report their attendance. The operation is ex-
actly like a normal user login to report attendance. Your iPhone/iPad is now an at-
tendance-reporting device.

ine Attendance Reporting

In case you are traveling to a few locations or countries for business duties, you
might have to report attendance when you reach each location. However Internet
connection might be restricted or unavailable at your location. In that case, you will
need to use Offline attendance reporting method. Before going outstation for your
duties, ensure that you report your attendance at least once when there is available
Internet or WiFi connection. The first attendance reporting is very important, as it
is a tag to the system to enable the offline attendance reporting. When you reach
the location without Internet or WiFi connection, login to Mobile TimeTec and you
will see this screen:

The Mobile TimeTec dis-
plays the words

Mode

on top. Tap the

scanner area to report
your attendance.

The system acknowledg-
es that you are reporting
your attendance, and it
saves your attendance
into its internal memory.

When an Internet or WiFi
connection is estab-
lished, it will upload the
attendance previously
stored into the TimeTec
server.

NOTE:

Before using the offline mode, you must perform a first-time attend-

ance-reporting while and Internet or WiFi connection is available. This is a tag to
pair Mobile TimeTec to the TimeTec Server, so that it recognizes future attend-
ance offline recordings.
