+300Companies manage their time control with Odoo

All my life, the time control of workers has been a real headache for human resources departments, for the team in charge of managing payrolls… At first, everything was done manually – currently many businesses and SMEs continue to do it -, resulting in poorly controlled schedules, incorrect signings and inconsistencies when it came to establishing shifts. All these errors were increased with the arrival of teleworking, resulting in payroll failures, loss of productivity and unnecessary equipment wear and tear.

The good news is that, thanks to technological innovations and the inclusion of automations, all these tasks have been simplified and allow the entrepreneur to have a reliable digital presence control system, with a minimum margin of error.

In this article, we explain why time control software can transform the internal management of your company and how Artisca’s solution is designed to solve these challenges safely and flexibly.

Current problems in the manual management of time control

Currently, many companies still use spreadsheets, paper clocks or old systems that do not adapt to the current reality and barely comply with current regulations. This creates problems such as:

Manual management of the time control: causes errors and data loss.
Poor control of shifts, teleworking and flexible schedules.
Payroll errors due to incorrect or poorly calculated signings.
Obsolete day registration systems that do not scale or comply with the regulations.

These problems not only affect the HR team, but also impact staff motivation and labour transparency.

Innovations offered by Artisca: kiosk mode

Why choose an Odoo-based time control solution?

The kiosk mode allows you to assign each employee a unique code to clock in from a previously configured tablet. Instead of logging in with their respective username and password, the worker selects their username and enters the code.

The main advantages:

Agile and simple filing
Ideal for environments with many employees
Reduce incidents and errors in the time registration
