Datamatics Provides Suitable Alternative to Manual Attendance Calendars

FORDS, NJ, January 3, 2007 - Datamatics Management Services, Inc., an established developer of labor management software applications, recognizes that companies are increasingly turning to time and attendance applications that aid them in eliminating waste, improving productivity, and advancing overall profits. For the sake of simplicity and its relatively inexpensive cost, a multitude of organizations go with "paper attendance" calendars, which provide an easy-to-use format. Datamatics understands the importance of simplicity, but truly takes employee time-tracking to the next level with its TC-1 software.

Eliminating Errors

Similar to paper attendance calendars, TC-1 makes it simple to note what days your workers missed and why, but by automating this function, you now get to eliminate manual calculation errors, which plague organizations of all types and sizes. In fact, as the APA's 2006 Payroll Best Practices Benchmarking Study shows, "The median error rate for organizations in 2006 was 1.24%, and the top reasons were employee/manager errors, late entry, HR data errors, late/missing time sheets, and input errors."

Other Advantages

In addition to increasing the efficiency and accuracy in computing payroll, TC-1 also provides significant advantages over manual paper time sheets in employee benefit accrual tracking. Whether it is a vacation day, FMLA, or sick day, TC-1 software applies a code for every reason for missed days/hours. Similar to manual attendance calendars, TC-1 provides its users with a monthly days earned/days used tracker, so you'll always know at a glance where each employee stands. However, in the TC-1 system, employees can also request time off, which is a function that manual calendars simply do not have.

In addition, TC-1 software also possesses the following features that are not associated with paper calendars: applying work and benefit rules consistently via the software, generating management reports, increasing productivity by scheduling work efficiently, allocating labor costs to departments, products, and clients, and reducing payroll preparation time through single point data entry.

Less Expensive than Paper

While the last advantage that businesses might look at for manual attendance calendars is the relatively low price, keep in mind that Datamatics allows its users to configure the solution they need at a price they can afford. So rather than worrying about how many "packs of calendars" that they have to buy, companies are turning towards automating time and attendance with increasing regularity. These companies understand that in addition to reducing absenteeism and minimizing payroll preparation costs, automating time and attendance can help to enhance management, improve data analysis, and ultimately support decisions that promote greater efficiencies and profitability.
