Transaction Entry Options
UltraTime can process transactions from a wide variety of sources, each providing
unique capabilities to provide you the best solution for your requirements. You
may select 1 or more input solutions depending on your requirements:
- Time clocks with a serial/modem/lan/web interface that accept barcode or
magstripe ID badges and keyboard input.
- Web Browser entry facilities for those employees who spend most of their
working time at a PC connected to an intranet or the Internet.
- PC LAN entry facilities for those employees who spend most of their working
time at a PC connected to the company server.
- Telephone based entry that allows employees to entry transactions via the
telephone at their respective location.
- Biometric based entry that uses fingerprint or hand geometry to verify the employee's identity before accepting transactions.
- Radio Frequency hand held units for online wireless transactions at locations
up to 1000' from the PC.
- Portable hand held units for offline transaction collection at remote sites.
Applying Company Policies
UltraTime has a wide variety of options that can be configured to impliment virtually
any company or collective bargaining rule requirement. And if we can't make it work
for your rules, we can custom modify the system for you, usually for a nominal fee.
Punch times, for example, may be optionally rounded to the nearest Tenth or Quarter
hour. In fact, they may be rounded to any time based on the company rule.
Grace periods may be applied so that an early Clock In is paid from
the employee's scheduled start time. The Clock Out may work the same or configured
differently.
Penalty Docking may be applied to deduct additional time for those
employees who Clock In after a specified grace period.
Lunch Periods may be configured to automatically deduct after a
specified number of work hours if the employee did not punch for lunch. Short
lunches may be rounded to the scheduled lunch period. Multiple Lunchs and breaks
per day may be configured.
Flagging of Employee Exceptions
UltraTime may be configured to flag a variety of attendance exceptions. These
exceptions are noted on the Exception Report and are visually color coded in
the UltraView module. These exceptions also provide input to the attendance
rating system AutoOccur. A few of the many exceptions are listed below:
- Absent - Employee was scheduled to work but didn't punch.
- Missing Punch - Employee forgot to punch In or Out.
- In Late/Early - Employee punched In before/after scheduled time.
- Out Late/Early - Employee punched Out before/after scheduled time.
- Long Lunch/Break - Employee took too long of a lunch or break.
