On Usage
 
1. I own a small company and I'm interested in this product. But some of our staff also do not have smartphone and we are not buying any hardware. Please advise.
You can use TimeTec TA easily. Buying hardware is an option, TimeTec TA has an App for attendance reporting by default. For those who do not have smartphone, you can take their attendance using web on a PC or you can ask the manager to take their attendance using Supervisor clocking in the App.
 
2. I don't want my staff to clock in using smartphone from anywhere. How can I control this activity?
TimeTec TA has a feature known as Geofence where the company can decide on the radius allowed from the main clocking location to clock. For example, you can set geofence at 50-meter radius from your office location, and your staff can only clock in when they are in within less than 50 meter from the office.
 
3. Our company has many mobile workers. We want to control cost of these workers. How would your solution cater to that?
There are two ways TimeTec TA can fulfill your needs. First is by using milage claim based on Google Map estimation available in the TimeTec App to track on all claims lodged by your mobile staff. Second is to track where they go through TimeTec App GPS clocking that tags GPS location with coordinates of the mobile workers.
 
4. My concern is payroll integration at month end. How do I take the data from your system and connect it to my payroll?
TimeTec TA has been integrated with 6 major payroll software in Malaysia. If yours is not, identify your payroll format for importing time attendance file and then you can customize the attendance file format to follow the payroll's format in TimeTec TA Export Attendance feature.
 
5. We have a few stores and we need all the staff to open the stores on time to avoid penalty by the building management. How does your solution tackle this?
Use monitoring feature in App to manage the staff. Set it to 30-minute or 15-minute before the store opens, and if the staff hasn't clocked in within those times, the system will flag and notify you for your immediate action.
 
6. Can this solution control Overtime claim? How?
TimeTec TA has OT approval. Make sure all staff who want to do overtime, apply for it first through the App so the company can control the overtime cost.
