Configuring geofence radius for a branch

Step 1: Add the Branch

Go to Organization → Branches → Add New and enter the branch's name and full address.

Step 2: Get GPS Coordinates

Use the built-in map location picker — search for the address or drag the pin to the branch's actual location so the system automatically captures the precise longitude/latitude.

Step 3: Set the Radius

Enter a radius value (in meters) — this is the maximum range within which employees are allowed to check in, measured from the center coordinate. A reasonable radius depends on the actual site size:

  • Small offices, shops: 50–100m.
  • Factories, warehouses, large premises: 200–500m.

Verifying the Setup

After saving, have an employee try checking in at the new branch to confirm the radius is configured correctly before it goes into official operation.

Note: A radius that's too small may prevent employees standing inside a building (where GPS drifts due to weak signal) from checking in — leave a safety margin.
