Time Management

Capture employee and crew time in Acumatica for projects, field service, manufacturing, and payroll with mobile time entry, automated approvals, and connected project costing and billing.

Track Time for Projects, Services, Manufacturing, and Payroll

Track time for employees, contractors, and other staff or resources from any web browser or the Acumatica mobile application. Team leaders can record time for multiple crew members at once, while field service and manufacturing shop floor workers can clock in and out as they perform tasks. Acumatica automatically calculates recorded time and consolidates it into timesheets.

Route timecards through configurable approval workflows based on the employee, task, or other criteria. Project managers and supervisors receive alerts when time entries require attention, and approvals can be completed from a browser or mobile device.

When used with Project Accounting, approved time can post directly to projects for cost tracking and billing. Time entries can also support construction, service management, manufacturing, and Acumatica Payroll, and can integrate with external human resource applications.

Key Benefits of Time Management Software for your Company

  • Native Time Tracking Across Acumatica

    Because Time Management is embedded in Acumatica, time activities can flow directly into project accounting, construction, service management, manufacturing, and payroll workflows. Businesses can capture time where work happens while keeping labor, project costs, billing, and operational data connected in one ERP system.

  • Capture and Approve Time Anywhere

    Enter time activities through a secure browser or the mobile app on any device, anytime, anywhere. Managers review and approve time activities in the system or on the go with the mobile app.

  • Automate Timecard Approvals

    Automated notifications alert managers when new time activities require their approval. Rejected activities notify employees so they can take appropriate action to correct the time activity.

  • Connect Time to Project Costing and Billing

    Time entries flow through to project accounting for project costing and billing. Time entries can be marked as billable or non-billable. Mark time entries for certified jobs, identify union local details, and work class compensation codes. Post updated project costs from within Time Management instead of waiting to see them until after payroll has been processed.
