The main interface of Time Manager has been designed  to be as straightforward and effortless to use as possible.

• Staff enter their hours into an online diary, similar to the way they would use a calendar to plan events in Microsoft Office or on a BlackBerry.

• Most people are already familiar with this kind of activity entry, meaning minimal training is needed.

• Nothing else is required - staff simply submit their entries and Time Manager will calculate their hours for each project and activity and produce a traditional timesheet for approval by managers.

• Other useful features include:

• Favourites - common activities which can be quickly selected to save looking through lists.

• Colour coded monthly diary to show days completed, days still to be entered, leave booked etc.

• Optional automatic entry of a minimum lunch break which can be set by managers.

• Automatic entry of leave into the diary when this is approved by managers.

• Options to change the layout, which can be set by each employee individually to meet their needs.

• Options to set individual employee's hours to full time, part time, school term only, or your own customised settings.
