Clock-in, Clock-out
This use case demonstrates how a secure and lightweight web solution for time booking in store operations can be implemented as an extension to Quinyx for workforce planning and time management.
The starting point: Lack of security authentication
Quinyx is being introduced for workforce scheduling and time management. However, the provided web punch application for clock-in and clock-out does not offer sufficient security authentication for time bookings in store environments. Alternative approaches such as physical terminals or a mobile application are explicitly not desired.
What does our solution look like? Simple web-based time tracking
A lean CAP-based application enables simple and user-friendly web-based time recording. Employees – including temporary staff without their own email address – can securely authenticate and reliably perform their time bookings. The solution uses a lightweight SAPUI5 or Fiori Elements-based web frontend, OData integration, and SAP Identity Authentication Service (IAS) as the central identity provider. In three steps, this means:
- Lightweight CAP-Based Web Application
Develops a streamlined CAP application for secure and efficient web-based time tracking. - Secure Authentication with SAP IAS
Uses SAP Identity Authentication Service as a centralized identity provider for reliable employee authentication. - User-Friendly SAPUI5 Frontend
Provides an intuitive web interface based on SAPUI5 or Fiori Elements for easy employee usage across stores.
The result? Innovation beyond the standard
The solution enables secure and scalable employee time booking with minimal operational overhead and a user-friendly experience.
In concrete terms: It ensures reliable authentication for all employee groups, offers intuitive clock-in and clock-out processes, and eliminates the need for complex hosting requirements and additional hardware costs.
