Equipment
understand how the device provides data before choosing an integration method.
Attendance Device Integration Software
Use your existing attendance devices with Forte HRIS. Attendance data can be brought into the system using a method suited to the equipment and company requirements.
Keep Existing Devices in Your HR Workflow
Adopting an HRIS does not always mean replacing attendance equipment. Companies may use different brands or models across locations. Forte HRIS is not tied to a single brand; data retrieval is discussed according to each device's capabilities.
Start with the Equipment You Have
Provide the brand, model, location and how the device makes attendance records available. This helps the team understand suitable retrieval methods.
Existing equipment can be considered while first checking how its data can be accessed and used.
Bring Attendance Records into Forte HRIS
Device records are synchronized into Forte HRIS for attendance administration. Retrieval methods and timing depend on equipment and available connectivity.
This provides HR with a clearer recording workflow than combining each device's information separately.
Match Employee Identities
Time records need to relate to the correct employee. Device identifiers and system employee data should be matched, especially when one person uses several devices.
Early checks help reduce unrecognized records or records assigned to the wrong person.
Read Attendance with Work Schedules
Device timestamps become useful when considered alongside shifts, calendars and attendance rules. A timestamp alone should not determine lateness or overtime without that context.
HR checks the results against the applicable period and rules.
Test Before Routine Use
Use sample records from the actual equipment in use. Check identities, dates, times and retrieval results under several working conditions.
Agree how to handle connection failures or missing records so users know what to check and whom to contact.

Important Checks for Device Data
Identity
device codes and employee records need a clear relationship to avoid assigning attendance to the wrong person.
Time
examine dates, times and schedules together, particularly for shifts crossing midnight.
FAQ
Questions About Attendance Device Integration
Must we buy a specific brand?
Forte HRIS is not limited to one brand. Existing devices can be discussed for integration based on their capabilities and data access.
Can every device connect without checking?
Brand alone does not determine compatibility. Model, data access, format and connectivity must be checked to select a suitable method.
Why must employee identifiers be matched?
So device records relate to the right person, including across multiple devices and locations.
Are device records the same as attendance calculations?
Device records are one data source. Attendance processing also needs the relevant schedule and company rules.
What should we prepare for discussion?
Provide device details, sample output, locations and the required retrieval timing.
Is help available from Forte HRIS?
Yes. Experienced support helps with application use, requirements and follow-up on difficulties.
