Time Range Behavior

The Time Range Behavior setting controls how staff members can mark check-in and check-out times.

  • Flexible: Staff members have a grace period of up to a specified number of minutes before and after the campus's opening and closing hours to mark check-in and check-out times.

Grace Period

If you select the Flexible time range behavior, you can specify a grace period in minutes before and after the campus's opening and closing hours. The grace period allows staff members to perform check-in/check-out operations within the specified minutes before the open time and after the close time.

Attendance Requirements

The Requirements section allows you to specify additional requirements that staff members must meet when marking check-in and check-out times.

  • Geolocation: If you enable the Geolocation requirement, staff members must mark their attendance within a specified radius of the campus's geolocation coordinates.
  • IP Restrictions: If you enable the IP Restrictions requirement, staff members must mark their attendance from a specified list of IP addresses.

Geolocation Radius

If you enable the Geolocation requirement, you can specify a radius in meters. This value represents the distance from the campus's geolocation coordinates that staff members must be within in order to mark their attendance.

IP Address List

  • If you enable the IP Restrictions requirement, be sure to communicate the list of approved IP addresses to your staff members.
