    1. Hi S.Panduranga,

      Please brief us more details regarding to your query. Basically you can ignore the "Check Out' message that appear during the verification. It is because, system will generate the Attendance record base on Clocking Schedule that you create in the software.

      However, if you have any query regarding this issue, kindly email to us at support@fingertec.com so we can assist you further. Thanks
