MINNEAPOLIS, MN. (March 6, 2006) - eEmpACT Software (a Bond International Company) announced today the release of their new Version 13 staffing software solution for front and back office users, in addition to the new eConnect module, compatible with Version 13. Created exclusively for staffing firms´ customers and employees, browser-based eConnect allows quick and easy access to many important time-consuming payroll, timecard and customer order functions.
"The demand for online automation in the staffing industry is tremendous, and software vendors must competitively meet and exceed that demand" said eEmpACT President & CEO Tim Giehll. "eConnect offers staffing businesses a secure and affordable solution for their customers, employees and staff. Accessing timecards, orders and invoicing information online results in increased efficiency and allows staffing companies to be that much more marketable to current and potential customers."
The web-based solution links directly from the staffing company´s current Web site, and is customized to appear as though it´s a part of the original site. With the click of a mouse, customers can utilize the following self-serve capabilities: review open orders, place new orders, approve timecards and view invoicing details. Employees can easily enter and submit timecards, therefore eliminating time-consuming administrative tasks normally done by staff members; in return, more orders are filled.
The capabilities of eConnect complement the already robust Version 13, whose new features include better contact management, new suite of history reports and significantly faster payroll calculations. Version 13 will offer full support for SQL Server 2005 and utilize Crystal Reports XI, the latest in reporting technology.
