#2 TOLERANCE TIME The definition of desired parameters for the calculation of time data is ensured in the TimeTool system via so-called day plans. A day plan summarizes the most important features such as target working time, break regulations or even overtime zones for the automated calculation of time data. Among the many possibilities you will also find parameters for configuring tolerance times - also known as grace times. But do you actually know what the task of a tolerance time definition is? Usually, tolerance time definition is applied in case of fixed working time or shift operation. In this case, the corresponding work start is defined as a time in the daily schedule. In a next step, the time range before the work start can be defined as a tolerance range. The prerequisite for this is defined overtime ranges. In the following example, 5 minutes before the specified start of work at 5 a.m. and 10 minutes after the end of work at 1:30 p.m. are defined as such zones. 
If the employee's time is now booked in the tolerance zone marked in green, for example at 04:56, the working time is automatically credited as overtime without the need for approval. The same applies, for example, to the going clock-in at 13:38. If the clock-in clock-out is registered before the defined tolerance range in the morning, the overtime is not automatically credited. In this case, the accrued time must be approved or rejected by the responsible supervisor via the TimeTool Message Center. In case of rejection, the working time is counted from the defined start of work at 5 o'clock. The same rule applies to overtime after the end of work. This procedure is intended to prevent individual overtime minutes from generating additional work for supervisors in the area of overtime approval.

Experiences from the project at Die Mobiliar - General Agency Belp, with Fabienne Lerch
No less than eleven general agencies of the insurance company Die Mobiliar now record working hours and absences with TimeTool. And there are more to come.
For more than a year, the employees of the general agency Belp have also been using the TimeTool solution. Working with an electronic system was nothing new for the staff - previously, another software product had been in use for many years. But what prompted the agency to make the switch? «We wanted a simple, straightforward and clear system for our employees,» says Fabienne Lerch, Head of Market Processing and member of the management team.
When the TimeTool system was put into operation, the preparation and prompt transfer of balance information from the previous system was a particular challenge. «Gaining acceptance for a new solution and training individual employees was also an intensive point during the introduction» adds Fabienne Lerch. Experience shows that replacing systems that have been in use for many years with modern solutions can be demanding, especially in this area.
In the context of the implementation, the partnership between client and supplier plays an important role. How did the general agency Belp experience this? «The cooperation with the TimeTool team was always uncomplicated. For the explanation of the most important points, we made an appointment at our general agency. We appreciated this very much.»
Once a system has been successfully put into operation, one would like to be able to manage day-to-day operations as independently as possible - without support from the supplier. Is that also the case at the Belp general agency? «The system works well and can be used in everyday life without support,» says Fabienne Lerch. TimeTool's support team is available to clarify open points and points that need to be optimized.
TimeTool AG thanks for the experience gained from the joint project with the general agency Belp and looks forward to further cooperation.

SHORT-TIME WORK
As a result of the Covid pandemic, many companies have been forced to introduce short-time work. They are required to document it correctly and account for it to the authorities.
Short-time work accumulates the difference between actual working time (actual time) and the contractual working time (target time) over a certain period of time. In this way, the actual working time is adjusted to the target working time (taking into account other absences such as illness, accident, etc.) with the time account balances remaining constant, i.e. there is neither an increase nor a decrease and the time account balances at the beginning of the short-time work correspond to those at the end of the short-time work. TimeTool is a flexible time recording system and supports this with appropriately implemented logics.

MAXIMUM TIME RECORDING
WITH MINIMAL INFRASTRUCTURE
The progress of digitalization constantly demands a more efficient and profound networking of our world: more and more things and devices are networked in the IoT (Internet of Things). In the area of cost-effective and innovative time and activity recording, TimeTool is breaking new ground with the IoT Badge Terminal PiOT.
PiOT serves as a simple terminal for time and activity recording on objects - placed in or on objects. Due to its communication type, the terminal also works reliably where other devices reach their limits. LoRa offers an optimal independent network coverage, which keeps the costs at an absolute minimum.
The innovative terminal is easy to install and can also be used on a mobile basis if required. With its effortless operation and lean integration into existing infrastructures, PiOT proves to be an extremely attractive, cost-effective and energy-saving alternative to classic time and attendance terminals.

Have you ever wished to enable your employees to record project and activity times on a stationary terminal? This variant of time recording on projects, objects, activities, departments or cost centers incl. corresponding evaluation is now available to you.
This is possible with our new uTerminal project app, which can be used on your existing or new uTerminal. For the entry on projects, objects, activities, departments or cost centers you don't need a barcode and also no project number. The corresponding elements can be selected and confirmed by means of selection lists. Operation is extremely simple - users are guided through the data entry process.
But where does project time recording on a stationary terminal make sense? This recording variant generates a high benefit especially in those areas where employees do not have the possibility to record on a PC or smartphone or where the recording should take place in real time.
Get to know the new possibilities of the uTerminal and request more information via our contact form. We look forward to hearing from you.

pipoCrew, the newest baby of the TimeTool product family, is the time clock for the road. Using RFID badges (Legic, Mifare), the working times of registered crew members can be recorded anywhere and at any time using an Android smartphone, and various evaluations can be viewed live. The communication from the badge to the terminal runs via NFC (Near Field Communication).
pipoCrew is thus ideally suited to changing or temporary workplaces, variable crew members and flexible work models. The time clock to go, so to speak.
Bookings are made and recorded via smartphone (NFC-compatible Android) using the pipoCrew app. And if the phone is not online, the bookings are securely stored offline and automatically transferred when it is online again.

Do you see possible applications for pipoCrew?
We would be happy to start the project together with you - we are looking forward to your CONTACT.
NOTE
pipoCrew works via NFC. The app runs via TimeTool time tracking software and requires the module «time» incl. corresponding licensing as Cloud, SaaS or onPremise solution.

| So, finally an end to the confusing paperwork! The «Image Upload»* function (e.g. for medical certificates, expense receipts) in the pipoPRO app makes it possible. And it works as simple as this: Take a picture of the document/expense receipt, optionally enter a comment and/or assign the picture to a project, subproject or activity, press «Capture». Done. With time (time recording and absence management) or project, the activity recording module of the pipoPRO app, you can use all licensed features - everywhere, immediately and at any time. The add-on module project, for example, allows you to record working hours directly on projects, sub-projects and/or activities. Learn more about pipoPRO at: pipoPRO App * Function «image upload» conditional release 8.0 as well as edition timePRO resp. projectEXPERT, available from April 2019. |  |
