  • 1.  Sage Time Track Users

    Posted 10-26-2020 12:00
    I have a customer who has been using Timecard on an earlier version of Sage. They are now looking to upgrade and that means adopting Time Track which is now built into Sage Payroll.

    While they only need 5 users for the Sage 100 ERP they may have up to 20 employees that they want to log in and track time.

    I think Time Track requires the use of regular Sage licenses but I'm not 100% sure. I have one other customer using Time Track but they manually collect the time and one person enters so they don't have a need for extra licenses.

    If this customer wants their employees to enter their time is there a way around purchasing full Sage licenses for that task? Or perhaps have I missed the fact that full licenses aren't required just for time entry?

    I have tried to look on the KB but info is tough to quickly locate.

    TIA

    Do they actually have to enter time or can they just punch in and out with it?  I have users with a punch in / punch out shortcut on their desktops.  They only open it to punch and close it again when they're done.

    That was another of my suggestions. I don't like that the punch in/out appears to require a shortcut with the user's password in plain text unless you use unified login.

    I suggested either VI or the shortcut you mentioned

    It would be nice if there were limited user licenses that could be available just for this purpose.
    My sense is that Sage doesn't sell enough Time Track and/or think it would result in any added sales so they haven't bothered to create any type of less expensive login

    Like Mary Jo said, we have clients that use the shortcut.  Others just have the time screen open on a central workstation, and each employee punches in/out as needed.  We only allow punches though, no access to Time Track Entry.

    I have a client entering time in excel and using a VI import job.  They also have Job Cost, so the Job No is part of the import.  They used to keep it open on one workstation, however found Excel to be easier.
