Face Recognition: Enabling It for an Employee

Face Recognition is set up per employee from the Face Recognition column in PROJECTS. The employee must be on the current version of the tracking app; if they still use the legacy app or the Chrome extension, the column says so and asks you to have them update from the Downloads section of their dashboard before you request consent.

  • Request Consent — the employee must grant consent before anything else. They respond from their own dashboard.
  • Request Photo — ask them to submit a face photo (use Request New Photo if you need a fresh one).
  • Open the Face Recognition Setup window to Approve or Reject the photo.
  • Press Enable Face Recognition to switch checking on.

Set the minimum match rate in the same column — see Face Recognition: Setting the Match Rate. If a webcam misbehaves, a notice appears in the work log; see Work Logs: Camera Notices During Face Verification.
