Using the Microsoft Store Time Track App

The Time Track App that is down loaded from Microsoft Store is an electronic time clock that interfaces with EBMS.  This time clock populates the clock in and clock out times within a worker's timecard. The solution also populates the timecard details lines using the work codes configured under a worker record.  The Time Track App is optimized to run on a touch screen device such as a tablet or touch screen monitor running MS Windows 10.   

Conveniently mount the Time Track App where employees can clock in and out when arriving or leaving work. The App can be run on individual user's computers or be mounted in a central location for workers to clock in and out similar to a traditional time clock.
