Jobs and Project tracking
Efficiency and diet experts and others when looking to see
where our time goes, tell us to write down what we do or eat for a period
of time. This information is later tallied to give a overall picture of where
the time goes and on what.
Most automobile and repair facilities have a printed time allotted
for a particular job. These numbers are derived from clocking how much time it
takes a competent mechanic to do a particular job. So by tracking a mechanic's
time you can tell if he meets established time standards.
Actual job or project costing can be an eye opener. Until you
actually track a job and establish a normal time for completion it is difficult
to tell if personnel are doing the job in the most efficient manor.
Technology now allows us through various devices to
easily track time. Databases can be created to show for example, who is at a
school class by passing a barcode ID under a scanner when they come and go from
class. Workers at a remote job site can clock in to this site with a small hand
held computer. On site marketing can be tracked for several locations through
remote clock in and out.
Information form job and project tracking can later be used to
determine the most efficient means to do a job, for record keeping and
proof of attendance, or for feed back from jobs by personnel. Every organization
can find benefit in some degree of job tracking.
TimeLegal offers the user several options to track jobs and
projects. With the ability to assign a job to a specific person, each
login and out by this person records working on this job. The person may
also enter the reason for the job clock in and enter a comment. He may also
clock in to different locations enabling the organization to determine how much
of his or her time to charge to this location. A nursing home using
TimeLegal who desires to know how much personnel time is spent on care of
individual patients for billing reasons, simply requires login to this patient
(Job) when attending to them.
TimeLegal allows multiple logins to the same job at the same
time, even form remote locations. The benefit of this ability can be quickly
seen as a total labor cost can be quickly reported on. This enables better time
tracking and lower operating costs.
