Avoid the following most common mistakes made during the initial phase of enrollment.
Incorrect placement
Finger rotation
. Avoid or minimize finger rotation during enrollment and verification.
Finger condition
. Avoid using a finger that is too wet or dry. Excessive or lacking moisture can
result in poor-quality finger images, characterized by smudged, faded or distorted areas on the finger.
Poor quality finger images
Finger Pressure
. Apply moderate pressure when making contact with the sensor reader. If too much
pressure is applied, the ridges adhere to each other, which is similar to the wet finger image. On the
other hand, if too little pressure is applied, the resulting image is similar to the dry finger. A little
practice is needed for employees to get the feel of it.

belong to a clock group that is assigned to the time clock. Then employee finger enrollment can be
