Wondering what the Sage 100 CON payroll option Simple Time Entry [5-6] is all about? If you are a Sage Subscription client currently using paper timecards in the field, this is a solution that can make all the difference.
Sage 100 Contractor provides a convenient time entry capability that employees on job sites can use to enter payroll information on their smartphones. It also provides a simple time entry window so users without access to others’ personal information can enter time into the payroll system.
Time entry through the Sage Time app streamlines payroll processing. Instead of employees having to fill in timecards that you or another employee must then enter manually into the payroll system, time entries are submitted directly through the app into the Sage 100 Contractor “back office” for review and approval by an authorized person.
After the time entries are approved, they are either sent immediately to Daily Payroll for processing or to the 5-6-5 Create Timecards window, depending on settings you select for your company. Creating timecards involves generating 5-2-2 Payroll Records from the time entries so that you can process them with your regular payroll.
Simple Time Entry enables employees who do not require access to other employees’ personal information to process time entries, keeping sensitive information private while enabling efficient processing of payroll.
Below is a series of introductory videos that walk you through how to set up and use the tool. You will find, after watching the videos, that you will need access to your Sage server and the Database Administration tool for the setup of this feature.
