eTimeMachine conveniently allows employees to report actual hours, overtime, billable, non-billable, lieu time, expenses, percent complete, remaining hours, issues etc... against all assigned tasks from  Microsoft® Project,Primavera®, Workflows, eTimeMachinetm and Action Request/Service Desk  Systems ( Remedy® & Magic®)via eTimeMachine's personalized employee workspace and Microsoft Outlook.

Collected data is passed through eTimeMachine’s matrix based timesheet approval workflow, allowing both functional and project managers to approve timesheets.  eTimeMachine supports a matrix based organization by collecting and presenting detailed cost and performance metrics from across and throughout all projects and functional business units/cost centers.

Approved data is date stamped and stored into eTimeMachine’s database and then sent to the appropriate project management (Microsoft Project, Primavera) financial (Oracle® Financials, SAP®, JD Edwards®, etc...), HR and Payroll system. eTimeMachine creates a one-write system that eliminates redundancy, reduces the potential for error and maintains data integrity.

eTimeMachine is a transaction based system that creates an auditable enterprise environment. Once timesheets are approved the data is locked, stored and secured from any unauthorized changes. Amendments to approved data can only be made by creating a debit and credit transaction, thus providing executives with detailed audit trails to support and validate financial statements.

The eTimeMachine timesheet has several standard and configurable business rules in place to better align with companies’ existing processes and minimizes the need for customization. By providing employees with a tool to report time, expense and progress against all corporate activities in ONE environment, companies can benefit from complete resource information to:

    * Better execute projects

    * Maintain data integrity and
