# Does the association method affect the result?

## PIN and iris recognition link records without changing measurement or classification.

No. Each User chooses whether their Scans are associated with their record by PIN or by optional one-to-one iris recognition. The method only links the Scan to the correct User. It does not affect how the measurement is performed, how it is compared with the baseline, or how the result is classified.

The dashboard shows which association method each User uses, to the Administrator, Agent, and Read-Only roles. Customers are advised not to use a User’s association method as a criterion in any assessment of that worker, including work allocation, evaluation, or discipline, and not to treat it as a factor when reviewing results.
