Divisions Management

TimeIPS Divisions are designed for companies that own, operate, or provide staff to independent business units. Each Division module allows for the creation of an additional sub-company where virtually all the operations in TimeIPS are available, but the lists of employees, jobs, departments, etc. are totally separate.

The TimeIPS® Division module provides the following features:

• Each module provides a license for one additional TimeIPS division.
• Additional modules can be purchased for large installations with many divisions.
• Each division provides complete separation for employees, jobs, work-orders, departments, sites, clocks, etc.
• Each division includes site-based functionality such as memberships, coverage and restrictions. A site license is included with each division module to provide this functionality. Additional site licenses can be purchased and used in divisions, if needed.
• Each clock can be assigned to a site belonging to the division, so that only employees belonging to the division can use the clock.
• When used with telephone clocking, each telephone clocking unit can be assigned to a site of a division, so that only employees belonging to the division can use the phone number.
• When used with remote clocking, a separate access URL can be provided for each division, and only employees belonging to the division can use the URL.
• Employees in a division can be payroll or employee administrators, and can run payroll and reports, but only for employees belonging to the division.
• Critical system settings (like network addresses and master configuration options) are only available to system administrators belonging to the master division.
• Each division can be assigned a manager (belonging to the master division).
• Division managers can receive email alerts when new employees are added to a division.
• Note: Because divisions are made for separate business units, employee transfers between divisions are treated as a lay-off from one division and a hire into another. Time worked, benefits earned, payroll processed, etc. for one division never carries over to a different division.
