Admin vs Employee Accounts

Critical: This is the most common confusion for new users. The admin credentials and employee credentials are completely separate systems. Please read this section carefully.

Web Dashboard (app.attendux.com)

The web dashboard is exclusively for administrators and managers:

Access with your admin email + password from the activation email
Used for managing employees, shifts, attendance, payroll, reports, and all system settings
Roles: super_admin, admin, or sub_admin

Mobile App (AttendUX on App Store / Google Play)

The mobile app is exclusively for employees:

Access with the employee email + password created by the admin in the dashboard
Used for check-in/check-out (with face recognition & GPS), viewing schedules, requesting leave, and viewing payslips
Requires a Company Code (provided by the admin) to connect to the correct company

Common Mistake: If you try to log in to the mobile app using your admin credentials, it will NOT work. You must first create employee accounts in the dashboard, and then employees use their own credentials in the app.

Setting Up Your Company

After your first login, follow this checklist to set up your company structure. We recommend completing these steps in order:

Add company information in Settings (name, address, phone, logo)
Create Branches with GPS locations and geofence radius
Create Departments to organize your teams
Define Shifts with working hours and grace periods
Add Employees and assign them to branches, departments, and shifts
Have employees download the Mobile App and log in with their credentials

Tip: You can complete these steps in any order, but we recommend this sequence because each step builds on the previous one. For example, you need branches before you can assign employees to them.

Your First Employee

Let's walk through adding your first employee to the system:

Navigate to Employees

In the dashboard sidebar, click "Employees" to open the employee management page.

Click "Add Employee"

Click the blue "Add Employee" button at the top of the page to open the creation form.

Fill in Required Fields

Enter the employee's full name, email, phone, department, branch, salary, and hire date. The email will be used for the mobile app login.

Assign a Shift

Select at least one shift for the employee. This determines their expected working hours.

Save and Share Credentials

Click "Save" to create the employee. Share the login credentials (email + password) and company code with the employee so they can log in to the mobile app.

Example

Ahmed Mohamed joins Cairo HQ branch, Engineering department, with a morning shift (9:00 AM – 5:00 PM). His admin creates his account with email ahmed@company.com and a temporary password. Ahmed downloads the AttendUX app, enters the company code, logs in, and can start checking in from the next day.

Downloading the Mobile App

The AttendUX mobile app is available for both iOS and Android devices. Employees need to download the app to check in and out.

Apple App Store

Available for iPhone and iPad running iOS 14 or later.

Google Play Store

Available for Android devices running Android 7.0 or later.

Enter Company Code

On the first screen, the employee enters the Company Code provided by the admin. This connects the app to your company.

Enter Employee Credentials

Enter the email and password that the admin created for this employee in the dashboard.

Start Using the App

Once logged in, the employee can check in/out, view schedules, request leave, and access all mobile features.

Reminder: The mobile app is for employees only. Admins manage the system from the web dashboard at app.attendux.com.
