How to handle duplicate attendance punches

Web Android Updated Aug 2026

If an employee punches twice in quick succession, it usually reflects a genuine double-tap. RushFlow records punches from the device as they come; correct the day’s attendance if a stray punch skews the in/out times.

  2. Correct if neededAdjust the day’s attendance so the worked time is right (e.g. keep the first clock-in and the genuine clock-out).
  3. Coach the tapA single firm scan avoids double punches; a rapid re-scan is the usual cause.
