The two most important Fingerprint T&A Functions are user
enrollment and user verification.
1.1.1 User Enrollment
Enrollment is the process of create an ID number and scanning a
user’s finger to create a template three times. This template is
associated with a user ID number and stored.
During user verification, the stored template is compared to the
current fingerprint scan to confirm the user’s identity.
Enrollment is performed at designated units. The user can verify
on the time recorder that enroll his fingerprint. The enrollment process
takes approximately 2 seconds.
Up to ten fingers can be enrolled for the same ID number, so the
user may have more verifications way.
Ideally, everyone finger on each hand should be enrolled so that
if the user injures the enrolled finger had, an alternate finger template
is available. While recording the finger type is optional, it is
recommended such as left or right index, so that at verification the
user is prompted as to which finger to use.
