MPSC (Military Personnel Services Corporation),
a fast-growing human
resource company of 45 blossomed into a 1000+ employee company
in two years, has became CC&C's client since January 2003, and
ever since then, MPSC has relied on CC&C's web-based
NetConsole/Timesheet product and service to manage employee's
Timesheets and Payroll process in a more efficient and convenient
way that they have never experienced before.
- About MPSC
MPSC is a human resource company that supplies a full range of
human resource services to government and commercial clients.
One of their human resource tasks is to help their clients identify
and hire contract associates to fit their current and future staffing
needs and meet any other requirements.
MPSC prides itself in values and makes sure the services and
specialists they supply are trained, current, and qualified for the job.
Along with their rapid growth came the need of finding a more proficient
technology to help them manage the growing numbers of employee's Timesheets,
Expense Requests and Payroll process hours.
- How NetConsole/Timesheet benefits to MPSC?
Before MPSC used web-based NetConsole/Timesheet, their employee's were
reporting their hours in paper timesheets. Not only is that a hassle
for employees to submit and get approval via fax (which sometimes took
days before approved timesheets came in payroll's office), it is a great
headache and time consuming task for payroll personnel to search, organize
and enter timesheet data into a local PC. It creates inefficiencies and
challenges, especially employees are working in different offices in different
locations across the country and many are supervised by on-site client supervisors.
With the introduction of CC&C's Web Timesheet - NetConsole/Timesheet to MPSC in early
2003, MPSC is now able to submit, get approval, retrieve and manage
all employees' timesheet and expense data in a centralized database
accessible through Internet to all employees and supervisors in a secured
and access-controllable environment.
Now MPSC employees are able to fill out their timesheets and expense reports
online, with no paperwork to file or fax. Their submitted timesheets and Expense
Reports are reviewed and approved by their supervisors online through an
easy-to-use web interface equipped with 4 different types of Email Reminders.
Supervisors and employees can query and see their reported timesheet hours with
their approval status as well as checking their reported vacation and sick leaves
at any time. Project Managers can now run the Timesheet Reports to figure out how
many hours have been logged to a particular Project/Task under their management in
a day-to-day or summarized hours report by employee, by project or by selected time
periods. Payroll Manager is now able to retrieve employees' timesheets using just a
web browser to prepare employees' timesheet reports for payroll process in just a
few clicks, which have saved them enormous precious time and efforts.
- Examples of typical routines of how NetConsole/Timesheet is
helping MPSC employees daily:
- Enter Timesheet
MPSC employees enter their working hours into NetConsole/Timesheets based on the
projects and tasks they have worked on for that day using just web browsers. The
daily personal calendar allows them to record their daily appointment and report
their detail status report along with their timesheets. Timesheet Report function
gives them the capability to retrieve their previous timesheets to review their
reported timesheet hours with their approval status, and check their reported
vacation and sick leave hours. Every Friday, they will submit their timesheets to
their own supervisors to get their timesheets approved online.
- Approve Timesheet
MPSC supervisors (many of them are client's on-site supervisors) review submitted
timesheets from their own subordinates and approve (or disapprove) employees' timesheets
with their comments. Supervisors can send back email notices to their employees if they
opt to. Multiple Timesheets Approving capability allows supervisors to review and
approve multiple timesheets all at once, which has saved a significant time approving
especially if you have dozens of subordinates reported to you.
- Timesheet and Payroll Reports (For Employees, Supervisors and Payroll Personnel)
MPSC Employees' timesheet data becomes accessible to employees, supervisors and payroll
personnel once they are in the centralized database. Employees can run their own Timesheet
Reports or Output Timesheet reports to find out the total hours reported to particular
projects/tasks during selected time periods. Supervisors and Project managers can run reports
to compare hours among different projects and among different time periods. Payroll uses
Timesheet reports to get employee's timesheets hours to report to ADP Data center.
- Email Reminders
Automatic Email Reminders are scheduled to sent out emails to selected employees every week to
remind employees to enter and submit their timesheets before due days, and also, reminders are
sent to supervisors to remind them to approve their subordinates' timesheets. Overdue Email
Reminders send out reminders to those who haven't submitted their timesheets if they are overdue.
- Expense Reports
Similar to Enter Timesheet, MPSC employees enter their expense reports related to travel, hotel stays,
rental cars and any other reimbursable expense items into NetConsole/Timesheets based on the projects
they are working on using web browsers, so they can even report their business expenses for approval
right from their hotel rooms equipped with Internet access. Email notices will notify Supervisors or
Project Managers to approve the submitted expense reports. Ad-Hoc Expense Report and Generate Expense
Report functions can be used to summarize the total business expenses by requested dates, expense items,
projects or by different requested amounts.
