How do I transfer archived RFID badges/key fobs to new employees?

If you need to re-use or re-assign an RFID card or key fob to a new employee, you will first need to remove the badge from the original employee's profile, then add the badge number to the new employee's profile. See the steps below for a complete walkthrough.

Notes:

• uAttend does not support ANY 3rd party accessories (RFID badges, key fobs, badge printers, PoE adapters, etc.).
• To transfer an RFID badge/key fob, you will need to remove the RFID from an assigned archived employee.
• To find out which archived employee has a specific RFID badge or key fob, run an Employee Report. Filter it to show archived users and include the Badge ID in the displayed attributes.

To remove the RFID from the archived employee:

1. Log in to the uAttend cloud portal as an administrator or supervisor (with permissions).
2. Click on the People tab.
3. Click the filter icon in the upper right corner.
4. Select the Archived option from the list.
5. Click the Unarchive button on the intended employee. 
6. After you've Unarchived the employee, click on their name.
7. Click on the Clocking Management tab.
8. On the Badge Number line, copy the badge number, remove the badge number and click the SAVE button. 
9. To archive the employee again, click the Personal tab.
10. Click the Status drop-down menu and select the intended Status option (listed below) for this employee.
    • Archived - Biometric data is purged (if applicable)
    • Temporarily Inactive - Biometric data is preserved (if applicable)
11. Add the badge to the new employee's profile.
