How do I track working time without a phone?

Left your phone in the locker room, it ran out of battery, or you simply do not take it to work? You do not have to ask your supervisor to fill the entry in — you can clock in at the KIOSK terminal standing in your location.


The KIOSK terminal


KIOSK is a tablet set up permanently in the location. When idle it shows a clock and the methods you can confirm your identity with.

You have four ways to choose from:


  • A fingerprint — requires a fingerprint reader
  • A contactless card — requires a card reader
  • A QR code — from the app or printed out, with no extra hardware
  • A PIN — five digits from your profile, with no extra hardware


If no readers are connected in the location, the QR code and the PIN remain.


How to clock in


  1. Go up to the terminal and pick a method, for example "PIN".

  1. Once you are recognised, the terminal shows your name and today's shift. Pick "Start shift".

  1. During the shift the same screen offers a paid break, an unpaid break and "Finish shift".

The screen goes idle by itself after a dozen or so seconds, so the next person does not clock in on your account.


Remember: You will find your PIN and QR code in your profile — in the mobile app under "My profile" (the QR code behind the "Show code" button), and in a browser under "Edit data""Personal information""KIOSK PIN".

Caution: The methods available depend on your company's policy and on which readers are connected to the terminal. If the terminal does not recognise you, the causes and workarounds are gathered in KIOSK doesn't recognise me — what should I do?.


More about clocking in and out is in Starting and finishing a shift, and about recording breaks in Breaks at work. How time tracking itself works is covered in RCP System, and the terminal as a whole in the Proplanum KIOSK category.
