Attendance Biometric Integration

ZingHR uses Microsoft Azure Environment for the Attendance Integration process. We do the 

integration with the Biometric databases where raw attendance is stored in the Client Biometric 

Database. Database can be MS-SQL / MS-Access / Text file. Location-wise Biometric device 

attendances will be downloaded at Client’s Local Database. This process can be Manual / Automatic at 

the client end. When Biometric stores raw attendance at one centralized place, integration will be 

done with that one location only. If it is decentralized ,it will require for us to do the integration with 

each location separately.

We have two options to do the Attendance Integration.

OPTION 1 : STANDARD PRODUCT OPTION – For All Cloud Customers - Pull Mechanism – Zing HR 

takes ownership and responsibility of the daily success of the pull process ONLY IF DAILY DATA IS 

REAL TIME AVAILABLE in Client Databases and where/when it does not happen; immediate actions 

and support to make it successful on that day or the next working day. This is 0 Cost to Customer.

We can pull the raw Attendance details from the your database server (where we will require the only 

read access to your database server to read the swipe data and write the pull mechanism accordingly)

OPTION 2 : CUSTOM PRODUCT OPTION – For All Cloud Customers - Push Mechanism –

Responsibility : Customer IT or Customer’s Vendor IT – Zing HR does not take any responsibility of 

the success or failure of the push process daily and integration is maintained by the Customer IT or 

Customer’s VENDOR: 

Your Bio metric vendor / your team / ZingHR can push the incremental swipes on a daily basis to our 

ZingHR database. We'll enable to access of our database to you. This process is for connection with 

MS-SQL DB type only. Effort Cost per activity is Rs 0 + Taxes for the customer.

Where the DB type is MS-ACCESS, additional effort will be required from ZingHR to CUSTOMIZE and 

create and then deploy the tool to synchronize MS-ACCESS DB raw data attendance into Zing DB. This 

requires a One Time Effort to create custom code . Effort Cost per activity is Rs 150000 + Taxes . There 

are a total of 7 Effort Steps to be done by Zing teams before it reaches the customer on the 2nd

working day for testing and confirmation of a successful data push from Customer to ZingDB.

Where the DB type is Text File/Flat File, additional effort is required from ZingHR to CUSTOMIZE to 

create FTP/SFTP to do the integration steps. A total of 6 Effort Steps are to be done by Zing teams 

before it reaches the customer on the 3rd working day for testing and confirmation of a successful data 

push from Customer to ZingDB. Effort Cost per activity is Rs 100000 + Taxes.
