# Create employee stamps.

`POST /employee_stamp/create`

This endpoint enables the creation of employee stamps. You must carry out this procedure to record an employee's
working time. When creating a stamp, you may include a reference to a project to log project-related work time
and a specified salary type to use a custom salary type for this stamp. The stamp can be set to either 'STAY'
or 'END'. Stay stamps can be created at the start of a shift, after a break, if automatic breaks are
not enabled in geoCapture, or when beginning work on a new project for project-related time tracking. Leave
stamps can be generated at the beginning of a pause or at the conclusion of a shift.
