The Daily Time Record (DTR) is a requirement as a basis primarily for the salary of employees. This DTR is a measure of the behavior of one’s employee towards work. It is used to determine the undertaking of employees during their working hours. It gathers the logs in and logs out time information. The study generally aimed to design, develop, implement and evaluate the Daily Time Record (DTR) System using Biometric Fingerprint Authentication. Specifically, the study aimed to design with usable functional requirements considering DTR, Employee, Department and Import modules. Likewise,
determine the system’s acceptability level using ISO 9126 criteria on its usability and efficiency. The study observed prototyping methodology in systems analysis, design, development, and implementation. The quantitative research was employed particularly purposive sampling during the system’s evaluation of its
functional requirements, and the system’s behavioral aspect particularly usability and efficiency
characteristics. The results revealed that the system, generally in accordance to the pre-defined
functionalities, particularly, compliance with the Civil Service DTR report, with highly acceptable system’s
behavioral characteristics on its usability and efficiency. It means the system functions adherence to
institutional standards, highly usable particularly in the keeping, monitoring of the employees’ attendance and the whole system process provides efficiency. The realization of the study is an indicator of evolving to the culture of innovation for ethical knowledge-based society. It is recommended to consider relevant features like the automatic generation of payroll, summary lists of the employees’ requisition of the leave credits, and the computation of absences to sustain evolving the culture of innovation towards ethical knowledge-based society.
