Task Linking for Engineering

 

If you’re operating an engineering or manufacturing shop, you may already be using Standard Time® for task management and tracking.

But did you know Standard Time also has task dependencies?

A task dependency is when one task must be completed before another starts. The two are linked. So it’s sometimes called “Task Linking”.

Very handy for project planning.

Consider using task linking in Standard Time to manage your next project!

Billing Clients for Work Orders

 

Manufacturing managers:

How do you track client-billable time for work orders? You know… for invoicing?

• Do you use a time tracking system?
• Or are operators on the shop floor still writing down their hours?
• Or… are you just guessing… and hoping for the best?

Why not scan work orders with a barcode scanner, and automatically generate client invoices?

All you need is a barcode scanner

And Standard Time

Track Time and Inventory

 

Hello manufacturing managers!

You already know that Standard Time® tracks time. Put a barcode scanner on the shop floor, and you instantly have manufacturing metrics.

But did you also know that the same scanner can be used for inventory and bill of materials?

Just scan materials, and they are deducted from inventory. Plus, they can be automatically reordered when low.

So… grab a barcode scanner and track both time and materials.

With Standard Time!
