Enable Web Punching with IP Restrictions for an Employee

For an additional layer of security, your uAttend account gives you the option to assign IP address security to an employee’s profile, with this option enabled, web punches performed by the employee can only be performed from within a network you’ve added, such as your office network, details below.

Notes:

• Supervisors can be configured with permissions to view and/or edit employees.  Their responsibility can also be limited to certain departments, thereby limiting which employee profiles they can access.
