FAQ
Do guards need to be registered as users?
No. Guards are personnel records in the guards table. They do not have login credentials. Only the admin user (in the users table) can sign in to the dashboard.
Can I use biometric devices without an internet connection?
No. The device (or a local agent) must be able to reach the application's API endpoint over HTTP/HTTPS. For on-premise installations, the device can communicate over the local network.
What biometric devices are supported?
Any device that can make HTTP requests. Common options include ZKTeco, Hikvision, and Suprema biometric readers. The device must be able to send the biometric identifier (template ID, user ID, or NFC UID) in the API call.
How is salary calculated?
net_salary = basic_salary - (absent_days × per_day_rate) - advance_balance. Per-day rate is basic_salary / 30. Leave and Off days are not deducted.
Can I export reports?
Reports can be viewed on screen. CSV export is available for guard lists.
What happens if I delete a guard?
The guard and all their attendance records are deleted. Advances, weapon assignments, and uniform issuances referencing the guard are also removed.
Is there a mobile app?
No mobile app is included. The application is a web-based SPA designed for desktop admin use.
