GEO_LOCATION_CAPTURE

This parameter controls whether the system attempts to capture the employee's GPS coordinates (their geolocation) when an employee clocks using mobility. The coordinates, if captured, are either stored as attributes of the recorded clock or used to validate whether the clocking attempt is even permitted.

When acquiring the device's GPS coordinates, Workforce Management can try to get a more accurate GPS reading for clocking purposes by using the high accuracy option supported in HTML5.

The parameter accepts these values:

• HIGH: The system uses the high accuracy option (enableHighAccuracy parameter set to true) when capturing the GPS coordinates of the employee's device during the clocking process. Depending on the device and location, this option may provide a more accurate position than the STANDARD option, possibly resulting in slower response times. This is the default.
  Note: With this setting, if the system experiences a timeout, the STANDARD option will be used for that clock transaction. In the next clock transaction, the system will again attempt to use the high accuracy option.
• STANDARD: The system does not use the high accuracy option when capturing the GPS coordinates of the employee's device during the clocking process.
• OFF: The system does not capture any location information during the clocking process. Users will not be prompted for access to their location.
