By using a 3rd party payroll time-clock system (i.e. TimeIPS) the employees can use a time-clock for hours worked and have the information integrated into the Profits Plus Payroll module. The basic functionality is explained below. Contact us for specifics via e-mail.
- A 3rd party time-clock system is installed as a networked system on the local network.
- Employee records are added to the 3rd party system with the employee number from Profits Plus as the common ID.
- Each ‘swipe’ (whether by a plastic ID card or manually entered employee ID) by an employee is recorded by the system.
- An Excel reporting system (i.e. Maxene Reporter) generates a timecard report in an Excel spreadsheet format and is e-mailed to the HR/Payroll person.
- The report is saved as a .csv file and imported into Profits Plus for further processing in the Payroll module.
The process eliminates the manual entry of time-card information, however it does require manual intervention if an employee forgets to clock in or out. But this is only done on the single/individual record level.
