NetSuite Workforce Management Benefits
NetSuite Workforce Management Features
NetSuite Workforce Management allows businesses to eliminate multiple applications and spreadsheets by providing a single, solution that streamlines scheduling and improves time and attendance tracking.
Scheduling
Create, edit and reassign shifts in one place. The visual shift scheduling tool allows managers to use a combination of forecasts, employee schedule templates and labor deployment models to optimise their workforce scheduling. Build a flexible labor model that tells you how many people you need using sales and production data, and see where you may be under- or over-staffed.
Time & Attendance
SuitePeople Time Clock allows employees to punch in and out on an Android or iOS mobile app with geo-tagging, or you can specify on-site Android or iOS tablets with a PIN. Optional photo capture and biometric fingerprint verification eliminates the risk of buddy clocking. Electronically record your employees’ shift start and finish times and breaks, and compare against what was scheduled. At any time, managers can make needed changes by comparing staff schedules to the current environment. Filling a no-show or short shift is fast and easy.
Wage Calculations
Automatically calculate hours, overtime and holidays with the built-in wage rules engine. Apply unique company policies and rules and see them triggered as you build schedules and approve time worked. This allows you to consider the total cost of your schedules. Seamlessly computes hours worked, in line with relevant rules and penalties for Payroll use.
Mobile App
The mobile app allows managers and employees to access and interact with their schedules from anywhere, anytime. Employees can clock in and out with the mobile app to easily track their time, confirm they’ll work the published shift schedule and get reminders of upcoming shifts and breaks. They can ask to swap shifts, and managers can approve or deny requests. Managers are notified if an employee has not punched in or out. To fill a shift at short notice, managers no longer need to dig out a list of phone numbers. In the mobile app, they can easily see who’s available and who will not affect labor targets with overtime.
Analytics
Customisable dashboards allow you to organise and monitor your most important data at any point throughout the day, without having to search in multiple places. Forecasts combined with labor coverage data shows forecast sales against scheduled labor metrics, ensuring managers have profitability of the business top of their mind. Labor metrics are updated in real time as you adjust the schedule. See daily and weekly stats including forecast sales, labor cost percentages, sales per labor hour, customer counts and store or warehouse targets. With side-by-side comparisons of locations and KPIs, managers can see how they are tracking to their targets and make on-the-fly staffing adjustments.
