Would you like to change the PIN in an employee's profile? Follow the steps below to make a bulk or individual change.

IMPORTANT: Do not confuse employee PINs with employee NUMBERS. The former is used for clocking in and out, while the latter is a number linked to payroll.

💡 When you create a new employee profile, Agendrix automatically assigns a random 4-digit PIN. This PIN cannot be assigned to more than one employee at a time, and employees cannot change it; only their supervisors can do so.


Changing the PIN code

There are two ways to change a PIN: in bulk in the employee list or directly in the individual profile. Here's how!

A) Quickly change the PINs of all employees

An advanced feature in the “Employees” menu allows you to view and change the PINs of all employees quickly.

  1. Click on the “HR” tab;

  2. Go to the "Employees" subsection;

  3. Change the display to emails to see the “Time and Attendance PINs” via the drop-down menu in the box;

  4. Click on each PIN to change it.


B) Change the PIN of a single employee in their profile

You can change an employee's PIN directly in their profile by following these steps:

  1. Go to the “HR” - “Employees” section;

  2. Select the user for whom you wish to change the PIN.

  3. Make sure you are in the “Profile” section.

  4. Click on the "Employment" subsection.

  5. Enter the desired PIN in “Time and Attendance PIN.” Please note that the PIN must be at least 4 digits long.

  6. Save
