Timekeeping

Save hours on repetitive timecard coding updates and corrections

Stop manually updating the same codes week after week. With Manage Default Coding in Timekeeping (Hours+), payroll accountants can update labor and allowance defaults directly from weekly timecards. Make changes once and all future timecards reflect them automatically.

Whether you’re adjusting account codes, updating allowance structures, or fixing non-monetary values after onboarding, the redesigned Deal Memo screen makes mid-production corrections fast, intuitive, and error-free. Everything updates seamlessly without repetitive data entry.

Now take more control of approval workflows as production evolves

Stop relying on support tickets to keep workflows up to date. The Approval Workflow Builder in Timekeeping (Hours+) lets you create and manage timecard approval workflows, department structures, and invoice templates directly within the platform. Make updates in real time as production needs change and grant trusted users Workflow Admin access for hands on, self-service control. Everything stays moving without delays.
