Graphical Dashboards – What are they and why are they important?

 

Imagine a way to quickly see your company’s up-to-the-minute employee scheduling, pay period totals, overtime, vacation balances and other key metrics. In an instant, you see simple gauges that show a quick snapshot of payroll, tardies, no shows and other performance indicators – with problem areas flagged in red.

This real-time employee information lets you respond quickly to any issues in a timely fashion, and take action where needed.

Real Time Data

Such a “quick snapshot” of key employee data is available to you in Attendance on Demand, with graphical dashboards that communicate intuitively and display real-time data related to your workforce. Labor activity is monitored in real time, so that deviations are flagged and addressed before they become chronic attendance problems.

The Attendance on Demand graphical dashboard shows real time metrics for improved control and operations. You choose from dashboards that display gauges of interest to departmental managers, payroll manager or supervisors. For more detail, a drill down feature for greater information gathering is available.

Payroll Manager Dashboard

The intuitive graphical dashboard communicates data instantly without extensive navigation. The payroll manager, for instance, sees real time status of overtime totals, schedules and errors, which are flagged so they can correct them before exporting to the payroll service. In an instant, you can see who arrived early, was tardy, left late, or any unscheduled exceptions.

Supervisor Dashboard

The supervisor dashboard monitors staff schedules in an instant to enable on-the-fly changes to employee scheduling plans. Dashboards also show a graphical presentation of employee leave requests, employees currently at work, and the number of shifts worked on that day. Supervisors can maintain appropriate employee coverage and make any corrections to employee worked time with minimal effort.

A Significant Impact

The business benefits of an employee time and attendance dashboard are significant and quantifiable. You can improve decisions related to overtime, scheduling, payroll and leave requests, and manage your workforce more effectively.
