Metron's approach to time and attendance tracking has employees clock-in and out on any networked PC using PcClock, or on the Internet using Time-Windows. There is no limit to the number of employees who can clock-in and out from one location and no expensive electronic clocks to invest in or maintain.












There is more to a good time clock solution than the employees clocking-in and out. The software must be flexible in it's rules for rounding, computing overtime and deducting for meal breaks. Reports must be comprehensive and easy to run. Interfacing to Payroll should be seamless. Job Costing should be an optional feature. Metron has addressed all of these

With Metron, setting up the Employee Record is fast and easy, especially with the use of helpful Wizards. The software is designed so that each employee’s unique rounding and overtime policies and the amount of time to deduct for breaks is maintained in one place. These policies can vary from employee to employee, providing maximum flexibility.

Employees quickly get the hang of clocking in and out on the PC. They can clock-in and out, change from one department to another, enter tips and view their last punch. If Job Costing is tracked they can enter Job information. They can either use the PC’s keyboard or the PC’s mouse to select a function and enter their badge number. 

The optional badge reader lets the employee swipe an ID badge whenever asked for their badge number.

In the payroll office, when the punches are collected, they are instantly posted to each employee time card record. Using secured access, employee time cards can be viewed and adjusted, if necessary.

Each employee time card displays all of his in and out punches for the work week, his calculated net hours for each day, his total regular, overtime and doubletime hours and gross earnings, his charge-to departments, (if tracked), his miscellaneous income like tips or commissions, (if tracked), and his average pay rate. Special Type Codes like Sick or Vacation can be entered on the employee’s time card and will be included in the payroll interface. Companies can vary on their application of overtime when it comes to Type Codes. An alternate pay rate can be applied to a specific work period and will likewise be included in the payroll interface. Each employee can clock-in up to 7 times in a day, providing accurate department charge-to tracking.







 

There are a variety of hours and earnings reports to select from that will serves a specific need in your department, or the department of another manager.  

Reports show both hours and gross earnings information by employee, department, pay period, by week or range of weeks, semi-monthly, monthly, by sick days or vacation days, etc., in detail or summary. On-Duty, Missed Punches and Attendance reports are included.  

Reports can be printed, displayed, E-mailed or exported.

PcClock’s optional Job Costing program enables your company to track up to 3 levels of user-defined information on every job. The employee simply selects the correct job information from lists, either using the PC's mouse or by barcode gun. Piece counts can be entered and bonuses can be computed automatically. 

Job Costing reports provide up-to-the-minute accounting for each job level, employee and date, including piece counts and extended piece rates.

The job tables are setup in the Job Costing department, then moved to the "Punch" locations. Job information is entered by the employee at the "Punch" location.

When the Job Costing department collects the job information, the time clock data will not be affected. Likewise, when the Payroll department collects the time clock data, the job information will not be affected.
