myGeoTracking Customers Tap New Workforce Automation and Automatic Time & Attendance Features for Huge Payroll and Opex Savings
Palo Alto, CA (PRWEB) November 25, 2014 -- Abaqus, Inc., a provider of the first-of-a-kind myGeoTracking cloud-hosted location and messaging platform, has expanded its mobile workforce management service with a new site and task assignment capability with the myGeoTracking time-clocking app that lets employees check in and out against their specific job assignments, plus more powerful automated mobile time clock and attendance monitoring features that make it easier than ever for businesses to more effectively control payroll and operating costs, while boosting accountability and productivity.
“We have a dynamic list of customer job sites and work schedules. Our appraisers need accurate to-the-minute attendance reporting from the job sites, and an accountant-friendly payroll report to help us assess our billing and payroll data on a daily basis” said Raymond Schachner, Director of Operations at RHW. “myGeoTracking has completely automated this process for us. Our back office does the adjustments to job sites and schedules from the web portal on the fly and it seamlessly works for everyone in the field. myGeoTracking has shaved off at least 50% of our payroll processing tasks.”
“Our customers need to focus on their business, and rely on myGeoTracking to gather critical job performance and payroll information, which is why we’ve added layers of service intelligence that automate common management tasks across various industries,” said Shailendra Jain, CEO of Abaqus. “This includes the addition of real-time field employee phone status detection for low battery, GPS turned off, and App turned-off status that almost eliminates common app down-time issues, plus we've added customized site / task pick lists for employees & new features that can automatically check employees in and out of job sites and verify their attendance on the job during the day – with almost zero-touch from the field employee or their manager.”
The myGeoTracking time card app for mobile workforce management makes it easy for companies to create automated mobile time clocking schedules using data from their back-office system, populate customer and job ID codes, and create customer-job-zones (aka “geo-zones”) for easy employee job attendance reporting. The company can then assign daily or weekly job schedules to their employees, and the system can automatically check the employees in and out of their job zones as they go about their normal work-day, and allow them to check in and out against their own customized task list via the myGeoTracking time card app.
The mobile time clock solution can be customized for various vertical industries and includes features such as:
- Customized job lists for employee task assignment and time-clocking.
- Minimal end-user interaction or training.
- The time card app can be used to log site attendance, job status and hours worked, and has a very light footprint that requires little input from the user.
- Exception alerts based on phone-status, job zone attendance and field activities
- Cloud-hosted management portal for service administration including scheduling, rules, alerts, geo-fencing, enterprise messaging and reporting. These reports can be easily imported into external systems such as payroll, ERP, CRM using APIs, EDI or basic CSV format.
- Supports most phones in North America (US and Canada), with or without an app.
- Supports international markets using apps for iOS, Android and Windows devices
*Supports non-app service for feature phones in certain international markets such as Singapore, Philippines, and India (Other countries being rapidly added).
