The WorkPLAN system enables the collection of real time data. For each task, you are able to record the actual time spent by machines and employees.
By controlling all work schedules, breaks, cycles and shifts
By real time collection using touch screens, barcodes or manual recording
By utilizing the system’s “Workshop View” screen to see in real time what task is performed on each machine or by each employee.
By setting employee time & attendance counters and rules for time payment and holidays.
By a direct interface to your payroll system
This can be done by keying in data manually or by using touch screens or bar codes.
When using touch screens your employees are able to record time and attendance, and when they start or finish any task. The employee can select a “resource” - a machine or workstation for example – and view all tasks that can be completed by that resource, or the tasks assigned to it within the current schedule.
At any time, the production manager can open the “Workshop View” screen in which he can see, in real time, which task is running on each machine for all departments.
With the WorkPLAN system you can also print bar codes and use bar code readers to record presence and time spent on tasks. You can even import completed time directly from the machines by using an agent that reads XML files.
The manager can set up employees time & attendance “counters & rules” for overtime payment, holidays etc., and this information can pass into your payroll system via a direct interface.
