Maaco´s corporate management sought to eliminate as many paper processes as possible throughout their corporate headquarters in King of Prussia, PA and wanted to implement processes that wouldn´t require a large IT investment. The company targeted their manual timesheet and attendance paper process as an area where they could move to a fully electronic bi-weekly payroll operation with relative ease. On a bi-weekly basis, Maaco´s department managers submitted paper timesheets for over 160 employees. Time and attendance data was manually input for processing by their existing Ceridan payroll system. Maaco´s goal was to automate the payroll process by using electronic timesheets and automatically downloading into their Ceridian payroll system, and thus, eliminate the large amounts of paperwork typically generated on a bi-weekly basis.
The Solution: Electronic Timesheets Removed Paper from the Timesheet Process and Automatically Integrated with the Ceridian Payroll System.
iEmployee's on-demand timesheet solution helps organizations eliminate the paperwork and manual processes associated with time collection. The timesheet solution helps streamline the entire process, from entry, approval, tracking, and reporting of time and attendance for every employee across the organization. Information can be accessed anytime and from any location with a standard Web-browser and an internet connection. The time sheet solution seamlessly integrates with major system providers, including Ceridian, ADP, Peoplesoft, Quickbooks, and many others.
Maaco chose a Web-based Electronic Timesheet solution because of its low cost of implementation, and with automatic integration with their existing Ceridian payroll system, allowed them to install a totally paperless process to operate their bi-weekly payroll system.
Using a standard Web browser, Maaco´s departmental managers submit their electronic timesheets to payroll. Time and attendance information is instantly transferred to the Ceridian payroll system and checks processed without manual paper input.
Ruthann Scarafone, Maaco´s Payroll Supervisor, said "using an electronic timesheet solution is fast, easy-to-use, and low cost to implement."
Maaco Looks to iEmployee´s iReports Module to Get Up-to-the-Minute Compensation and Hours Data for Each Employee.
With the successful implementation of the electronic timesheet solution, Maaco is now evaluating iEmployee´s iReports module.
iReports helps organizations track and analyze employee information, including time and attendance. The iReports engine provides a number of built-in reports that give managers instantaneous access to departmental information. Commonly run reports can be saved and quickly accessed and information can be viewed in graphical format for easier analysis. iReports also allows the creation of custom reports for added flexibility.
"iReports will give us an up-to-the-minute, on-demand report of employee compensation and hours," said Scarafone. "iReports seems to be much easier to use than standard Crystal Reports."
