…with the power to structure the database to meet your reporting needs

The typical base information requirements for a time entry might be as follows:

• Project, Activity
• Client, Project, Activity
• Client, Project, Deliverable, Activity
• Business Stream, Work Package, Activity
• Activity, Customer

However, beyond this there is often a requirement to group and aggregate data in a variety of ways, such as:

• By internal business area, department, account team, function
• By product or product group
• By geographic area, of your business or your clients business
• By charging category
• By account code for links with finance or job costing systems
• For benchmarking, possibly in more than one way

In many systems, this is not possible and even if possible – not easy. Data has to be extracted and manipulated externally to produce the information required. This can be cumbersome and reduces ease of use and ease of reporting.

TimeSheet Professional provides a database hierarchy with up to ten levels, plus up to 10 different custom fields at each level and up to 10 markers against tasks and against time entries.

Some system providers without a multi-level database suggest that they can achieve all that TimeSheet Professional can achieve with custom fields – this is not the case. TimeSheet’s multi-level structure allows users to order and aggregate information in reports quickly and easily.

TimeSheet’s database can be simply configured and requires no specialist IT skills. As importantly, TimeSheet Professional provides the tools to ensure that your system remains fast and easy to use and that accuracy is preserved.
