Create an Employee Sign In/Sign Out App

Lydia Russell

Hi,

I am trying to create an app for staff to sign themsleves in/out when they arrive and leave work. I am new to VIsual.net, learning C# and Xamarin. Can anyone tell me if I am heading in the right direction to create this app. Don't need to use SQL 2016, hopefully can be achieved within Xamarin?

What should I be using?

Thanks

Lydia

Please find a link to something similar I want to create:

Not a guest but a staff list, so the member only selects from a drop down. No logins required.

Accepted answer
You need to make this app login based otherwise anyone can sign-in and sign-out anyone. there must be some restriction.

You say you don't want to use SQL Server, then I wonder how you are going to store the user input on server or somewhere. You must store user input somewhere otherwise what is meaning of creating such an app.

And your end-users may be your best persons to ask for input, not us.

Go and develop a prototype, show it to users, get feedback and modify accordingly.

Thanks Nilesh, Yes will start with SQL database to create the fields.
Then use ASP.net to create the form.
I'll start and if I have any issues I'll post.
