Kiosks¶
Odoo's Attendances app allows employees to check in and out of work directly from the database or a kiosk.
A kiosk is a dedicated device (a PC, tablet, or mobile phone) for employees to use when they check in and out.
Kiosks are needed for employees who do not have access to the database.
Only employees with access to the Odoo database can check in and out from the Attendances app, and they are referred to as users.
