Quick answer
New users are added from the device's User Management menu: give each person a unique user ID (match your payroll number), enter their name, then enrol two or more fingerprints, a face, a card or a PIN. Keep the user as Normal unless they need admin rights, and sync to the attendance software so reports show the right name.

02Frequently asked questions
How many fingerprints should I enrol?
At least two per person, so a cut or dirty finger doesn't stop them clocking in.
Can I add users from the software?
Yes, many setups add users in software and push them to the device; fingerprints still need enrolling at the device.
