How to Configure Attendance Kiosk in Odoo 18 ERP

The innovative Attendance Kiosk in Odoo 18 is made to streamline and update the way companies manage employee attendance. With the use of a dedicated kiosk—usually a tablet or touchscreen device—that is conveniently located, like the office entrance, employees may effortlessly clock in and depart with this function. The kiosk is easy to use and can be tailored to your company's unique requirements. It can handle various attendance record kinds, such as normal hours, breaks, and remote work.

The Attendance Kiosk offers real-time data and is completely integrated with Odoo's HR and Payroll modules, guaranteeing precise tracking and reporting of attendance. This feature is a priceless asset for any contemporary company since it not only increases operational efficiency but also lowers human errors and administrative workload.

Employee attendance can be added and labeled with the use of the Kiosk Mode option, which works with badge scans or manual recognition.

On selecting the option, you can have the option to install the app, as shown in the screenshot below.
