Vendor-independent
One HRMS for every brand of terminal you own
Hardware gets bought over years, from whichever dealer was nearest. Manufacturer clouds treat a mixed estate as unsupported. We treat it as the normal case.
iClock / ADMS
eSSL, ZKTeco and other standard ADMS terminals
Realtime
Realtime Biometrics native protocol
Attendance
Everything the free software should have done
Two protocol families, every mainstream brand
The iClock/ADMS push protocol behind eSSL and ZKTeco, and Realtime's own native protocol, report into the same attendance register. A mixed estate of eSSL, ZKTeco and Realtime terminals behaves as one system — which no manufacturer's own cloud does.
Cloud enrolment pushed to the device
Create an employee in the browser and push the record to every terminal at that site. No keypad entry at the machine.
Template sync across terminals
A fingerprint or face template captured once is stored centrally and re-pushed to your other terminals, so nobody enrols twice.
Break and overtime as distinct events
break-out, break-in, overtime-in and overtime-out are recorded as their own event types, not inferred from gaps between punches.
Access control, not just a timesheet
Lock or unlock any employee from the dashboard; the instruction reaches every terminal at that site. Denied attempts are recorded. Doors can be released remotely.
Verification method on every punch
Each record keeps which method verified it — face, finger, card or PIN — which is what settles a disputed entry.
Payroll
Attendance that carries all the way to salary
Most attendance products stop at a report and leave you to re-key it into a spreadsheet. The punch that opened the gate is the same punch that decides the salary — no export, no reconciliation, no second version of the truth.
Single or double shift per employee
Each person has their own duty times. Punches are bucketed to the correct shift automatically, and a double-shift employee can carry a separate salary for each shift.
Late marking with a grace period
A configurable grace window decides what counts as late. Late marking is disabled entirely for staff with no saved duty time, so nobody is penalised against a default they never agreed to.
Late penalties you define
Set how many lates trigger a penalty, and whether the penalty is a flat fine or a fraction of a shift's pay. Below the threshold, nothing is deducted.
Paid leave that behaves correctly
Paid leaves are allowed per shift and capped at the month's working days, so full attendance always pays exactly the configured salary — in a 28-day February and a 31-day March alike.
Salary computed from actual attendance
Gross is derived from shift units present, then late deductions are applied, giving a calculated amount per employee per month. The breakdown is itemised rather than a single number.
Advances tracked and settled
Record a salary advance, see the outstanding balance, and settle it against a future payment. The advance is booked to expenses at the same time.
Monthly payroll report
One report across all staff for a month, plus a per-employee attendance calendar showing every day's status.
Built for how India actually works
A plant gate, a school staff room and a three-branch office have genuinely different attendance problems. Each has its own page.

What AionHRMS does not do
Stated here rather than discovered three weeks into a rollout.
- Statutory filings (PF, ESI, TDS returns) — attendance and salary are computed, filing is not
- Leave application and approval workflows — paid-leave allowance is applied, but there is no request/approve flow
- Geofenced attendance marking from a mobile phone — in development
- Student attendance for schools — staff attendance and access only
Frequently asked questions
- Does AionHRMS do payroll, or only attendance?
- Both. Attendance from your biometric terminals feeds a shift-based payroll engine: each employee has their own duty times, punches are bucketed to the right shift, late marks are counted against a grace period you set, and salary is computed from shift units actually present with paid leave applied and late penalties deducted. Advances are tracked and settled against future payments. What it does not do is statutory filing — PF, ESI and TDS returns are still filed by you or your CA.
- Will it work with the biometric machine I already own?
- In most cases yes. AionHRMS implements two push protocols that between them cover the mainstream Indian market: iClock/ADMS — used by eSSL, ZKTeco and other terminals speaking standard ADMS — and Realtime's own native protocol. The terminal is repointed at our server from its own settings menu, so no new hardware is needed. Send us the model and serial and we will confirm before you commit.
- What makes this different from the free software with my device?
- Bundled software is written for one manufacturer and stops at attendance. AionHRMS is vendor-independent — eSSL, ZKTeco and Realtime terminals report into one register — and it carries the attendance through to shifts, late rules and salary. If your offices run mixed hardware bought over several years, no manufacturer's own cloud can serve all of it.
- Do employees have to enrol on every machine?
- No. A fingerprint or face template captured on one terminal is stored centrally and pushed to your others. Someone enrolled at the head office gate is recognised at the factory gate without scanning again.
- How does face recognition attendance work?
- The terminal computes a mathematical template of the face — never a stored photograph — and matches against it locally in under a second, using the neural matching built into the device. AionHRMS records which method verified each punch, so face, fingerprint and card entries are all distinguishable in the register.
- Can it handle multiple branches?
- Yes. Every location's terminals report into one organisation. Head office sees a combined register across branches; a branch administrator sees only their own site. Staff who move between locations are enrolled once.
- What does AionHRMS cost?
- It is priced per site with unlimited employees and unlimited terminals, sold through authorised biometric hardware dealers so your quote covers device, installation and software together. Per-employee pricing penalises exactly the organisations biometric attendance suits best, so we do not use it.
Keep the hardware. Change the software.
Point your existing terminal at AionHRMS and have cloud attendance — and the payroll behind it — running before the end of the day.
