Biometric Attendance Sync Tool - Time Sync Issue

[KuPVC]

I am trying to use the Biometric Attendance Sync Tool (https://github.com/frappe/biometric-attendance-sync-tool) to synchronize attendance data from a local machine to ERPNext hosted on Frappe Cloud. The synchronization process is working, and all data is being posted successfully except for the time field.

The issue I am facing is that the time from the biometric device is not being fetched correctly. Instead, the current time (local machine time) is being used for the time field in ERPNext. I have checked the tool's configuration and ensured that the time zone settings are correct.

Has anyone encountered a similar issue? Is there a way to ensure that the time from the biometric device is accurately synced with ERPNext? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!

I tried a custom script to check the same and please find the details below.

import requests
import json

Enter your ERPNext API credentials and URL

ERPNEXT_API_KEY = 'your_api_key'
ERPNEXT_API_SECRET = 'your_api_secret'
ERPNEXT_URL = 'your_erpnext_url'

Data to send to ERPNext

data = {
'employee_field_value': '20018',
'timestamp': '2024-04-25 17:04:34',
'device_id': 'deskdevice',
'log_type': 'IN'
}

ERPNext endpoint and headers

endpoint = f"{ERPNEXT_URL}/api/method/hrms.hr.doctype.employee_checkin.employee_checkin.add_log_based_on_employee_field"
headers = {
'Authorization': f"token {ERPNEXT_API_KEY}:{ERPNEXT_API_SECRET}",
'Accept': 'application/json',
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}

Send a POST request to ERPNext with the data

response = requests.post(endpoint, headers=headers, json=data)

Check the response status code and print the result

if response.status_code == 200:
print("Data sent successfully!")
print(response.json())
else:
print("Failed to send data to ERPNext.")
print(response.text)
