Quick answer A time attendance system for real estate developers and sales offices is a fingerprint terminal at the staff entrance, ZKBio Time.Net on a PC, and timetables that match how your people really work. Staff scan in and out, and the software calculates late, early and overtime hours for payroll. **Get a ZKTeco attendance terminal for your business**: Supplied and installed across Kenya.

A fingerprint terminal records when each person actually arrives and leaves, and the software turns that into a report payroll can use. ## How attendance works at real estate developers and sales offices Developers have head office staff, a sales team that visits clients and sites, and site teams on building projects. ## Where to put the terminal Put terminals at head office, the sales office and each active site gate. Count how many people arrive at the same time. If a queue forms at shift change, add a second terminal instead of asking staff to wait. See [where to install a ZKTeco K40 Pro](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkteco-k40-pro-where-to-install) and [how many employees one terminal can handle](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkteco-k40-pro-how-many-employees). ## Setting it up in ZKBio Time.Net This is the order we follow when we set up a system for real estate developers and sales offices. Each step has its own guide with screenshots. 1. Install the software, then [add the terminal over TCP/IP](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkbio-time-net-add-device-tcp-ip). 2. Create departments or areas that match how you are organised ([departments and areas](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkbio-time-net-departments-and-areas)). 3. Add staff one by one or [import them from Excel](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkbio-time-net-import-employees-excel), then [enrol their fingerprints](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkteco-k40-pro-enroll-fingerprint). 4. Create departments for Head Office, Sales and each site. 5. Press Calculate and check the first day's report before you trust the numbers ([Calculate attendance](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkbio-time-net-calculate-attendance)). ## Reports you will actually use Use daily reports per site and monthly summaries per department. They all come from the standard reports: [daily report](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkbio-time-net-daily-attendance-report), [late and early report](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkbio-time-net-late-early-report), and [export to Excel](https://qyvea.co.ke/zkbio-time-net-export-report-to-excel) for payroll. ## Supply and installation by Qyvea Qyvea Limited supplies ZKTeco attendance terminals, installs them, configures the software, enrols your staff and trains whoever runs payroll.

Terminals at each location reported to one database at head office. *Illustrative example based on common cases, not a named customer.* ## Common mistakes - Forgetting site foremen. - Treating sales field visits as absence. - No network plan for the site offices. ## Quick checklist 1. Count staff and entrances before you buy. 2. Write the working hours down as timetables. 3. Enrol everyone, including casual and part-time staff. 4. Run a one-week trial and compare it with your old register. 5. Name one person who owns the reports. ## Frequently asked questions Can site terminals work with no internet? They store punches locally and can be downloaded by USB or synced when connected. Does it connect to payroll? Export hours to Excel for your payroll.
