Frequently asked questions

What is Absensi-Q?

Absensi-Q is an online attendance system for companies. Employees clock in and clock out on their phone with a selfie and their location. Owners and admins set up locations, shifts and employees, and review attendance on a website called the portal.

Who uses the portal, and who uses the employee app?

Company owners and admins use the portal to manage the company. Employees use the employee app to clock in and clock out and to see their records. Choose the right one after you press Log in on the Absensi-Q website.

Do I need to install anything?

No installation is needed to use the portal or the employee app. Both open in the web browser. Employees can open the employee app on their phone.

Which languages are available?

The website, the portal and the employee app are available in English and in Bahasa Indonesia. You can change the language inside the portal and inside the app.

How do I start using Absensi-Q for my company?

Register your company on the website. Then add your locations and draw the clock-in area, check the departments and positions, check the shifts, add your employees and invite them. The guide on getting started with the portal lists the steps in order.

What is a geofence?

A geofence is an invisible boundary that you draw on a map around your workplace. The employee app uses the GPS of the phone to check whether the employee is inside it when the employee clocks in or out.

Can employees clock in from anywhere?

Only if you allow it. For each department, job position or employee you can choose Fixed, which means inside the geofence only, or Flexible, which means anywhere. The selfie and the position are still recorded for Flexible employees.

How do I give different teams different working days?

Create a roster pattern for each schedule, then choose it as the Default Roster Pattern of the department or the job position. Employees follow the pattern of their position, or of their department if the position has none. The portal does not set a different roster for one single employee.

What happens when an employee forgets to clock out?

The day is marked No clock-out. The employee should tell the admin. If your company turned on attendance corrections, the employee can also ask for a correction, and an approver reviews it in the portal.

Can I see the selfie and the location of an employee?

Yes. In the portal, open Attendance, then Records, and press the picture in the Selfie column. You see the photo for clock in and clock out, and whether the phone was inside or outside the geofence.

How does an employee get access to the app?

Add the employee in the portal, with an email address. Then press Send Invitation. The employee opens the email, sets a password and accepts the invitation. After that, the employee signs in to the employee app.

An employee forgot the password. What should the employee do?

On the sign-in screen of the employee app, press Forgot password?, type the email address and press Send reset link. The employee opens the email and sets a new password. The link works for 30 minutes.

What should I do when an employee leaves the company?

Open the employee in the portal and change the status to Resigned or Terminated, or to Inactive if the person is away for a while. Only Active employees count toward the limit of your plan. Avoid deleting an employee, because deleting cannot be undone.

How do I pay for a plan?

You pay each invoice by bank transfer. Open Subscription in the portal, open the invoice and read the bank details. Make the transfer with your own bank, then fill in the payment form and add a photo or a screenshot of the transfer receipt. The receipt is required.

How long does it take until my payment is confirmed?

After you submit your payment, Absensi-Q checks it against the bank statement. The invoice page shows the status and updates by itself when the payment is reviewed. If it takes longer than you expect, contact us.

What happens if I do not pay on time?

First there is a grace period, which is extra time to pay. In this time, everything keeps working and a banner reminds you. If the plan expires, employees cannot sign in until the invoice is paid. Owners and admins can always sign in to pay.

Do I get a refund for the unused part of my plan?

No. The unused value of your old plan is not refunded. When you change your plan, it is only subtracted from the price of the change. Payments that were already made are not refunded either.
