Data Systems International (DSI) has announced the availability of dcLINK TIMETrac 9.0, the latest release of the company's paperless solution for time, attendance, and labor reporting.

DSI reports that OYO Geospace (NASDAQ: OYOG) is using dcLINK TIMETrac 9.0 in its Calgary, Alberta, Canada, manufacturing facility to collect and manage employee time data, streamline payroll processes, and capture labor data as part of the work process. The company also uses DSI's dcLINK for inventory transactions for manufacturing processes in the Calgary facility.

Integration of dcLINK TIMETrac and dcLINK with Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne enables OYO Geospace to save time, reduce costs, and achieve business process improvements. The company previously used manual processes and homegrown legacy software to collect and manage time data.

"Using dcLINK TIMETrac 9.0, we can review and approve employee time data more efficiently, and prepare our payroll data for upload to our payroll processor in a matter of minutes, rather than hours," said Bobby Hoeflich, director of Information Technology, OYO Geospace.

In addition, Hoeflich said, "We can also more accurately apply labor to work orders on our shop floor. We can now see, in real-time, how much labor has been applied to a work order, and that information is seamlessly integrated with our JD Edwards application."

"dcLINK TIMETrac 9.0 does more than just record time and attendance. It is an integrated, paperless solution that helps our clients capture time data as part of their normal work processes. Using that data, they gain visibility into their workforce operations and turn time data into a useful business asset," said John Adams, senior vice president, Sales and International Operations, DSI.
