The current portable finger scanner attendance tool used does not yet have a system for processing data. The purpose of this study is to create a system that is able to receive, process and store data that has been sent by a portable finger scanner. The method carried out in this study was an experiment including designing hardware, software, and testing tools. The trial results show that the tool runs in accordance with the planned specifications. Data can be received through LoRa, stored in the database, and then converted into Excel format. Each mode is able to function properly, the planned distance of acceptance is achieved, and the final purpose of designing the tool is fulfilled.
