The time sheet element of this solution streamlines the entire time reporting process by recording and tracking hours worked by employees on a weekly or daily basis from any Notes client or a browser interface, whether in the office or out in the field. The key features of the application are:

• Simple to use - after planning the project using a full function project planning tool, such as Microsoft Project, the project plan can be entered into kelros.project and subsequently time sheets entered and monitored against this plan.
• Project Repository - fully integrated with kelros.sales, if applicable, details about the project owner(s) and manager can be entered along with OLE links to the detailed project plan, if required.
• Activity Management fully integrated with Calendaring & Scheduling - including the ability to generate scheduled activities for events & actions.
• Ability to schedule individual days or multiple days for a person against a specific project plus the facility to see already booked time iconically or as a number of days view. Notes agents allow the bulk changes of information relating to a specific project.
• Ability to plan individual people on a monthly/task/man day basis - against each project, each resources time plan can be entered on a man day basis by calendar month. It is also possible to record the plan at the task level, if appropriate.
• Time sheet recording - the resources, or project administrator, can then enter individual time sheets against the plan at the project/task/day level recording the hours worked and any relevant comments
• Individual Cost Rates and working days - each resource is entered into the system with a default working day and cost rate. This cost rate can be overwritten on any plan (at the overall project or individual task level). These costs are then retrieved during time sheet entry.
• Analysis of projects by both Time and Cost - each plan is costed after the time plan estimates are entered and then actual progress can be monitored against the plans in terms of either man days or estimated costs. Under target results are positive and over target results are negative making it very easy to identify projects that are slipping or over running.
• Analysis can be by customer, project, year or resource and there are views designed specifically to help resources monitor their own efforts against the plans
