Setting up Multiple Organisations

Timesheet software can be configured so employees across multiple Microkeeper organisations can clock in from the same Fingerprint scanner.

User Settings configuration for multiple organisations

When configuring the User Settings of the Timesheet software, set the Username with organisations separated by an "@" symbol.

Example: 

Username:org1@org2

A setup like below will allow employees from both "org1" and "org2" to clock in from the same fingerprint scanner.

Configuration of User Settings of the Timesheet Software with Username set as "org1@org2"


Important note on assigning Fingerprints with a multiple organisation configuration

When the Timesheet software is configured for multiple organisations, assigning fingerprints to employees will not be available

Instead you will need to reconfigure the Username under User Settings to a single organisation to assign the fingerprint to that employee. 


Troubleshooting

Maintenance

The condition of the fingerprint reader affects its ability to obtain a good quality scan of a fingerprint. To maintain the fingerprint reader, the oval window should be cleaned periodically as follows: 


Damaged Scanner

How can you determine if the fingerprint scanner has been damaged?

The scanner on the left is cloudy, is has been cleaned with a corrosive that has damaged the scanning window, it will not be able to detect fingerprints.

The scanner on the right is clear, it's working as expected.
