ETIMEMACHINE TIMESHEETS
The idea behind eTimeMachine timesheets is to simplify the task of recording time spent on activities and make it less challenging by bringing together in one screen all activities assigned to an employee, regardless of the type and origin, be it an overhead task, activity from a crew assignment, project activities, tickets, ad-hoc tasks, etc.
EMPLOYEE PORTAL TO ALL WORK ASSIGNMENTS
eTimeMachine timesheet is employee's portal to all enterprise activities. Instead of entering time separately for multiple projects and in multiple systems, a timesheet is presented to an employee already pre-populated with all current tasks and hours based on configuration and/or attendace information, where only revision and minor corrections may be required.
ELIMINATING UNNECESSARY EFFORT
Employee's timesheet can be configured to minimize or altogether eliminate repetitive time entry using the "by exception" approach. With this approach, the time is pre-populated and can be submitted automatically, unless the exception is raised based on the specified business rules, e.g. max or min hours rule.
CREW TIMESHEETS DISTRIBUTION
Electronic timesheets provide employees and crews with a consolidated view of activities (work assignments) originating from within eTimeMachine or other Project and Work Management Systems. Time reported for a crew can be propagated to each member's timesheet.
TIMESHEET APPROVAL PROCESS
Employees fill up their timesheets by recording their time, progress and expenses, and submit them periodically for approval. Managers (Resource Managers, Project Managers) can approve and reject timesheets entirely or partially. Upon approval of timesheets, the originating systems are updated with actual time and progress. This information also updates other systems, such as accounting, Payroll and HR.
ALERTS AND NOTIFICATION
The system features automatic notifications, which can be a flag or a pop-up message or an e-mail.
ATTENDANCE AND VACATION REQUESTS
Attendance reporting and Vacation requests are also handled from the same interface.
