Time clock on a BlackBerry

Exaktime has introduced PocketClock/GPS for BlackBerry, software that transforms a BlackBerry phone into a portable GPS time clock and management tool for supervisors in the field. Part of The JobClock System, PocketClock/GPS lets mobile employees or crews clock in and out at dozens of locations each week.

Using PocketClock/GPS, workers easily clock in or out and record what type of work they are doing. Each time punch includes a GPS fix so the office knows the location of every clock in/out and can quickly view the travel times between locations. Managers can also set a virtual perimeter around each job site to highlight employees clocking in or out when they are not actually at the work site. The system displays a map, pinpointing job sites and overlaying attendance data onto the map.

PocketClock/GPS for BlackBerry adds a completely new set of multimedia supervisor tools. A supervisor can use the BlackBerry’s camera to take photos at the work site and can also record audio field notes.

Time records and field notes are securely sent to the office computer from nearly any location using the BlackBerry’s Internet connection and Exaktime’s JobClock.net service. After the information is transferred to the company’s office computer, Exaktime TimeSummit software lets managers analyze and export work hours into the company’s accounting or payroll system as well as review field notes.
