You can scan a fingerprint using a workstation or the Simphony Enterprise Management Console (EMC).

    1. Sign in to the workstation as an employee with the proper role privileges.
    2. Open the Edit Employee PIN function.
    3. Select the employee whose fingerprints need to be scanned.
    4. Click the Enroll Fingerprint button.
    5. Follow the prompts to enroll up to three fingers for one employee.
    6. Click Yes at the prompt to scan the same finger three times, or click No to scan different fingers.
