If you’re using simPRO to manage your jobs, and need more flexibility with time-tracking, you can now integrate simPRO with TSheets to create the Ultimate Job and Time Management Engine.
SyncEzy allows you to create jobs in simPRO as usual, with sections and cost centres, and then sync these jobs with TSheets so your staff can clock their time, into the relevant sections and cost centres, quickly and easily on their smart phone or tablet, ready for your approval.
Once approved, these times are synced back to simPRO, and the simPRO schedule, so that all your labour is accurately reflected in your job costings.
Here are just a few reasons you need TSheets to supercharge your simPRO functionality:
1. AUTOMATIC SCHEDULING IN SIMPRO – Save admin time wasted on re-entering and scheduling employees based on actual hours. Automate scheduling and invoicing by auto-scheduling jobs in simPRO based on actual hours worked and approved in TSheets.
2. JOB SECTION / COST CENTRE FLEXIBILITY – TSheets allows time to be clocked into nested jobs, within other jobs, which perfectly corresponds to simPRO Jobs, Sections and Cost Centres. Unlike simPRO Connect, however, staff can clock on and off and switch between jobs, sections and cost centres, easily and seamlessly on the fly, even if this is a variation from their schedule. So, if one part of the job they have been scheduled to work on isn’t ready, they can work on something else and then go back to it.
3. PAYROLL INTEGRATION – Once times are clocked and approved, pay day is effortless thanks to the TSheets integration with Quickbooks, Xero, Reckon and MYOB. Not only is manual entry a drain on your bookkeepers’ time, it can result in its fair share of errors. By bypassing manual and often duplicate data entry, you can eliminate typos and enjoy accurate employee times, including paid time off, that are transferred seamlessly to payroll, in one easy click.
One of our customers, Eastern Services Group, told us that TSheets and SyncEzy have saved both their Project Manager, and their Payroll Manager, a whole day’s work, each. Before switching to TSheets, the 25 field staff would write out a paper timesheet, photograph it with their phone, and send it to the Project Manager, who would go through each timesheet to approve the hours and manually enter all of the times against the jobs in simPRO. The Payroll Manager would then re-enter all of the times into Xero to process payroll. Now this is all automatic and there is no entering of times into simPRO or Xero. Once approved in TSheets, SyncEzy sends everything to simPRO with the click of a button, so all times are accurately reflected again every Job, Section and Cost Centre. Then, with one more button click, all hours are in Xero ready to process payroll!
Accurate tracking equals accurate reporting. When you know exactly where your staff are spending their time and what parts of a job are overrun and delayed beyond budget or deadlines, you have complete job clarity. Job Clarity equals Business Intelligence, and this will always be reflected in your bottom line, and your bank account.
