Kiosk

Pair a wall tablet so people can check in with a six-digit code, with no login on the device and nothing to log out of.

A kiosk is a tablet on a wall that anyone can walk up to. Nobody signs into it: an employee types their own six-digit code and taps once. It is how a depot or a shop floor records attendance for people who do not sit at a desk.

The Kiosk screen, headed Kiosk above the line Wall tablets for checking in and out. Nobody logs into them: an employee types their six-digit code and taps once, with a blue Kiosk button at the right. Five rows follow, each with a name, a green dot, the office beneath it and the words Never used: Birmingham Kiosk at Birmingham Trade Counter, Bristol Kiosk, Glasgow Kiosk, Rotherham Kiosk and Sheffield Kiosk. Each row carries a QR icon labelled Link and a red bin icon.
A green dot means the pairing is live. Link reopens the QR code for that tablet.

Add and pair one

  1. Go to Worklink Settings > Kiosk, then select + Kiosk at the top right.

  2. Give it a Name that says where it is, such as Warehouse door, and choose the Office it belongs to. Both are required, and only active offices are offered.

  3. Select Save. Worklink goes straight to the pairing screen, because pairing is the point of adding one.

    The pairing dialog for Birmingham Kiosk, subtitled Birmingham Trade Counter. It reads Scan this on the tablet, or open the link on it once. The kiosk stays on that page: there is no login and nothing to log out of, above a large QR code on a white panel.
  4. On the tablet, scan the QR code, or use Copy link and open the address there once.

  5. Leave the tablet on that page and select Done here.

Reading the list

Each kiosk shows its name, its office and when it was last used. A green dot means active; a Revoked badge means the pairing has been withdrawn and the tablet no longer works. Link reopens the pairing screen at any time, which is what you use when a tablet is replaced or reset.
