Hi,how to pull attendance data from biometric system to NAVision?Biometric system has provided me with a DLL file and the biometric system is IP based.I want to pull data from the system every hour.

What I understand here is that you need to know what methods are supported by the dll provided. Then probably see if the dll can generate .csv file or .xml files. If that is possible, then you need to design a dataport or an xmlport to import the data and can schedule this entire process to run at an interval of 1 hour.

You should contact your vendor for the API details.

Hello Parash25

CAMS Biometric attendance machines supports the Web API which you can use for integrating the machine with your server. As per the API Documentation , you need to expose an URL which will be associated with the attendance machine. After the association, every time a attendance gets registered, the associated URL will be called. Now under the URL, you can handle the attendance detail and store in your database.

In the POS instead of giving Staff Id and Password, the staffs should be able to logon by using fingerprint(biometric scanner).
