Worker login options: NFC/RFID/SmartCard/Barcodes

Workers can use custom codes to directly login the app using NFC/RFID/SmartCard/Barcode readers

Written by Vânia Lourenço

The standard behavior for workers to identify themselves is by typing their worker number. However, workers can also log in either by using the barcode labels generated by Autodesk Fusion Operations or - if your factory already has barcode/NFC/RFID tags - the workers can still use their custom codes to log in the app and start production.

Autodesk Fusion Operations worker Login Barcodes

You can generate the barcode for each worker in the workers page.

1. Navigate to the Workers menu (1), select the “Worker Number” checkbox to select all workers (2), and then click on “Print IDs” (3).

You can also select the checkboxes for individual or specific workers and print IDs only for those workers.

2. Confirm the prompt, and a PDF file containing the barcodes will be generated. You can then distribute it to the workers.


Already existing barcode labels or NFC/RFID tags

In order for this to work, first, you must set the custom codes on each worker who's going to use this functionality. To do this, simply go to each workers page and fill in the "NFC/RFID/SmartCard/Barcode for login" box with the code.

You can write the code manually, or alternatively, if you have an NFC/RFID/SmartCard/Barcode reader connected to your computer, simply select the text box and read your worker's code. The code should immediately appear in the text box, as plain text.

The codes used to check in must be unique (i.e. different workers may not use the same code).

Usage for both options

After setting the codes, the workers in your factory may use their codes to check-in productions in Autodesk Fusion Operations' mobile app. To do this, simply read the codes using your NFC/RFID/Barcode reader while in the tablet's main screen or in the worker login screen.
