Rules-based Processing Eliminates Costly Errors |
|
The rules error-check the user input, so you get clean data. The rules-based concept makes it more conducive to establishing consistent and accurate work practices with associated pay rates.
Rules can be modified at will -- daily, weekly, whenever needed . As “new” errors are discovered through business experiences, they can be added easily. An example of a custom rule -- an employee cannot have a gas expense on a day she does not have a rental car.
• Customizable logic checks for inconsistencies – not your managers.
• The rules check for user inputs that cannot happen on the timesheet, such as working 200 hours a week.
• Validating against rules greatly reduces potential for fraud, either malicious or unintentional.
• Prevent overpayment or underpayment
• Reduce subjectivity in the approval process.

Supervisors Manage by Exception |
|
ASTARS™ automatically flags Issues or “exceptions” that require more attention, making them visible to supervisors without having to look at every entry on every timesheet.
Unusual activity, deviations from standard practice or policies and other anomalies are identified more readily than with a manual process. Exceptions may be perfectly valid but should be checked by a supervisor. For example, a full-time employee only reporting 8 hours in a 40-hour week would be flagged as an exception.
• Managers no longer waste time reviewing every timesheet – Only those with flagged exceptions.
• Rules can be customized for each individual employee, for groups within your organization or one rule set can apply to everyone.
