Timesheets

The Sicon Approvals Timesheets module is aimed at businesses wanting to devolve the responsibility of data entry to their end users, whilst using the approvals process to regulate the outcome.

Enter and approve timesheet information with options to link to work patterns, costs, charges and pay rates. Integration with Sicon Projects provides optimum functionality, giving users the ability to record time against projects with that information immediately displayed as a commitment, moving to actual upon approval.

In an era where there is an ever increasing demand for remote, flexible working, this web–based solution wraps around Sage 200 to provide the ease of access end users require, with the necessary tools businesses need to maintain control.

The available App (IOS and Android) provides scaled-down functionality to further extend usability, making Sicon Approvals functionality available ‘on the go’.
