edays and Idency
Clocking in meets biometric security with IdencyTime’s integration with edays.
Add Accurate Attendance Data to Your edays System
edays helps you manage employee leave and absence. IdencyTime provides the verified attendance data to support it.
edays makes it easy to manage annual leave, sickness and employee absences, while IdencyTime and biometric clocking devices captures accurate, verified attendance from your workforce.
By integrating edays with IdencyTime, employee information stays synchronised automatically and attendance records are captured without manual intervention. Every clock in and clock out is verified using biometric authentication, giving you confidence that attendance data is accurate and up to date.
With trusted attendance information alongside your absence records, your HR team can reduce administration, improve reporting and maintain a complete view of employee attendance and availability.
A Smarter Way to Manage Attendance and Absence
edays manages your employee leave and absence records
IdencyTime provides accurate, biometric verified attendance
Together, they create a streamlined workforce management solution that reduces manual administration, improves data accuracy, automates employee synchronisation and provides greater visibility of attendance and absence across your organisation.
Close the Gap Between Scheduled and Actual Hours
edays already tracks scheduled vs actual hours. Biometric clocking adds a layer of physical, on-site verification on top.
With IdencyTime connected to edays, you can:
- See exactly when staff arrive and leave
- Improve accuracy and accountability by preventing buddy clocking and time fraud through biometric verification
- Monitor overtime and unplanned hours
- Reduce reliance on manual adjustments
- Gain clear visibility into attendance trends
This gives managers the insight they need to stay in control of staffing in real time.
Built for Fast-Moving, Shift-Driven Businesses
When your business depends on people being in the right place at the right time, every shift needs to be backed by verified clocking data.
That makes the integration a strong fit for:
- Manufacturing, warehouses and factories
- Construction
- Facilities and service-based businesses
- Hospitality venues and restaurant groups
- Retail chains and multi-location stores
- Care homes and healthcare providers
If your business relies on people being in the right place at the right time, this integration ensures data confidence.
How It Works (In Practice)
(1) Employee clocks in
Using facial recognition, fingerprint, or RFID at a device on-site
(2) Data is captured instantly
The device sends the clocking records to IdencyTime in real time
(3) Attendance is processed
IdencyTime organises and prepares the clock records for use
(4) Data appears in edays
Clocking data imports to edays within 5 minutes, showing actual vs scheduled hours
No spreadsheets. No manual uploads. No chasing missing hours.
Remove Time Theft and Buddy Punching
Idency paired with edays provides a highly accurate solution for high volume kiosk check-ins that need the extra guarantees of bio authentication:
One of the biggest challenges in shift-based environments is inaccurate clocking.
IdencyTime solves this with biometric verification:
- Facial recognition prevents shared logins
- Fingerprint scanning ensures the right person is clocking
- RFID options available where biometrics aren’t suitable
That protects you from…
… buddy punching, inflated hours and unauthorised clock-ins – and gives you payroll data you can trust.
And ultimately leads to more reliable payroll data.
Make Payroll Faster and Less Stressful
When your attendance data is accurate from the start, payroll becomes significantly easier.
With IdencyTime and edays:
- Timesheets are automatically generated using real-time clocking data captured directly from employee activity
- Fewer discrepancies need investigating
- Less manual editing is required
- Payroll can be finalised more quickly – and staff trust it more.
It’s a small change that saves hours every pay cycle.
