The client is into the manufacturing and marketing of Agro-Products for years, with a sales force working on the field to market its numerous products, as per demands of the market.
Business Requirement
The client manufacturing Agro Products has been using a mobile app for its mobile marketing team. The web-based application now had to be enhanced to meet another requirement of the client. The client wanted a provision for an employee to clock-in and clock-out through the mobile application.
The admin will be able give the privilege to access the clock-in and clock-out option in the mobile application, to the specific user (employee). The client wanted the system to manage the employee shifts automatically, based on the parameters configured manually by the admin. Each employee will be allowed 2 to 3 shifts and the system has to auto shift these shifts for the employee.
Solution Provided
To meet the client’s requirement, we provided a separate configuration as a mobile clock-in / clock-out feature. The complete employee list was uploaded so that the admin can select the required user alone. The update of clock-in and clock-out details thus will be enabled for the respective users by the admin and not for all. A new auto shift module has been designed and various time slots had been created by the admin on the screen to map the appropriate shifts. A new employee auto shift template has been created, wherein the admin can update all eligible shifts, based on the employee code.
