TECS is Timesheet Entry and Capture System that can be bespoked for multiple time capture frequencies - weekly, bi-weekly and four weekly.
TECS allows Area Managers to capture timesheet hours as well as one off payments data. Once the data capture is complete, it is submitted to the Operations Manager for review and approval. The Operations manager has an option to reject the timesheet for a week and send it back to the Area Manager for changes. Once approved by the Operations Manager it is sent to the Regional Manager for authorisation.
Thus the data is centralised and easily accessible and the workflow can be monitored using various enquiry and reports. An end-of-period routine can consolidate the period's data for each employee for easy uploading into the payroll system. Historical data (hours worked and payments made) is also available easily at all times. Click here to view the TECS workflow.
Various reports are also available in TECS to control and monitor the Timesheet capture process.
