First, train the Face Recognition module and add your employees (setup instructions here). Then, in the Time and Attendance settings, define and name zones (workstation, entrance door, and so on), add employees and combine them into groups, and set the work schedule (production calendar).

When an employee enters the camera’s field of view, the system analyzes the frame and looks for a match in the database.

Once the identity is confirmed, the current time is logged as an arrival, a departure, or presence in the selected zone — depending on your settings. The data is saved to a log file.

From the collected data, the module automatically generates reports in .html — timesheets, late-arrival records and more — with detailed data for each employee. Reports cover late arrivals, time spent in zones, restricted-area access, early departures and more.

If needed, the system can alert the administrator when someone is late, leaves early, or is absent longer than allowed — through any of Xeoma’s notification modules.
