Time and attendance data enhances Datatrack functionality

The latest module for DataTrack, the business administration and production management system, is an integrated time and attendance module which is a logical extension to DataTrack's proven Shop Floor Data Collection module.

The integrated time and attendance module offers three possibilities for data collection. These are: time and attendance only with employee records available for analysis or export; time and attendance together with shop floor data collection analysing setting and production times independently by clocking on and off jobs and machines; standard post-event logging of shop floor data collection with independent analysis on recorded times for setting and production. Employee time and attendance is a vital element of cost control and productivity levels so the addition of the time and attendance function will give management totally reliable statistics. Analysis options include personnel on-site by clocking on and off, recording holiday leave and waiting time or non-productive times for any reason. Data input can be provided using keyboard, bar-code reader or touch-screen. A supervisor module is also available for editing and correction of input and it contains a full reporting system. The time and attendance module can also be integrated with the DataTrack Status Board display system to provide real time displays of attendance, progress and action. The module is available for all DataTrack Edition packages (Evolution, Precision, Contract, Ultimate) and gives the user very clear options in respect of how they wish to organise their business.
