Many professional services organizations turn to Microsoft Dynamics AX to manage critical project data and control complex business processes. With
TimeAX from CGS, accessing back-end timesheet information is simplified by utilizing the familiar environment of Microsoft Outlook. The solution greatly enhances productivity by allowing your people to interact with Microsoft Dynamics AX directly from Outlook 2007.
TimeAX brings new functionality and enhanced user experience that is deeply integrated with Microsoft Outlook 2007. The solution links Microsoft Dynamics AX timesheets with the Outlook calendar, automatically updating data and tracking changes to linked appointments or meetings. This greatly saves time and minimizes errors when correlating tasks and allocating time across multiple projects.
Because TimeAX submits through the Microsoft Dynamics AX
Timesheets approval process, company policies can be applied and internal approval routing procedures can be followed. The end result is that your employees will spend less time on timesheets and more time being productive for your business.
Other highlights include:
- Works with either Microsoft Dynamics AX Projects modules or the
Professional Services for Microsoft Dynamics AX (PSA) solution
- Pre-populated project details are done on import with an assignment
- Users do not need to select the journal to which time will be posted as this information is already configured in
Dynamics AX
- Checks each appointment to ensure that it has not already been added to another timecard, helping to avoid reporting errors
- Color codes appointments that have already been added to a timecard for a quick visual overview of appointments
- Timesheets are based on defined time periods, so there are fewer timesheets to manage
- Ensures that users do not enter more timecards per period than are allowed by validating against AX when the user attempts to create a timecard
- Improve cash flow with accelerated billing, client invoicing and reduced administrative costs
