Key Points

When managing terminal accounts, the main points to be aware of are.

  • Terminal accounts are required to login to the dedicated computers/devices (terminals) around your organisation.
    • Terminals within OneBoxBM are designed to be access points that allow users to clock/punch in/out etc.
  • You can have either a single terminal account that's used to access all terminals within your organisation, or as many accounts as you there are terminals.
    • Using one account per terminal helps create a more reliable audit/history trail as you know where an employee clocked/punched in/out from.
  • Account names names must be unique.
  • Each account will have both a password and a pin number to help keep them more secure.
  • In order to manage terminal accounts, you must be granted access to do so.
