Employee Time Clock with TRACKER
Since TRACKER was introduced, more and more users are using the Employee Time Clock that is included with Tracker. Sorry, I don't think you can buy it separately, however, that would be a great idea to tell the guys at PrintSmith.
 
The time clock works like any other time clock, employees "punch" in and out in the mornings and night, for lunch, and for breaks. Management can also get reports to prepare payroll. The reports can be generated weekly/bi weekly/monthly, etc to correspond to your pay periods. It is a basic time clock function but works very well. I even have a client with over 60 employees using it!
 
An extremely nice benefit of using the time clock is if you are using TRACKER as well. In this case, you can get a report that matches actual time on the clock (paid time) vs. the actual time spent on producing work! This is a great tool to increase your employees productivity.
Report Writer

Report Writer is one of the best tools within PrintSmith to see what actually is in PrintSmith and how you can use it to further your companies profits.

One client runs a report monthly to determine the number of plates charged for vs. the number of plates bought. This has brought down his waste on plates significantly!

Another client uses Report Writer to find the customers that he hasn't seen in the past 2 months. He then uses this info to call the customer and to see why they left.

And still another client uses Report Writer to determine how many estimates and invoices their CSR's and sales reps created. Find out who in your operation is doing the bulk of the estimates/invoices!

Report Writer is a fairly easy program to learn, however, most people initially have problems with it. My services include teaching you how to use Report Writer and how to create reports and modify reports. A one day visit will make you a pro in Report Writer and will pay for the visit in no time at all from all of the reports you can create! Call me for more details.

For my PUSH clients, I will also create reports at no additional cost!

Buy NowMy New Service - PUSH!
A user in the Boston area writes about my new service, his name and phone number will be furnished to anyone upon request:

"Your response time, quality of service, and general attitude towards customer service and solving customers problems is in every way superior to what I have experienced with EFI.
My only regret is that I can't get into a time machine and start working with you a month ago.
Thanks for the fantastic service at an unbeatable price."

So, due to overwhelmingly request from my clients and other PrintSmith Users, I started "PUSH" - PrintSmith Users Support Hotline. Any PrintSmith user can sign up for PUSH. PUSH subscribers receive a "special" phone number that will be manned virtually 24/7 and calls will be returned immediately. The purchase price for PUSH is $550.00 per year and can be paid for via PayPal. Once payment is received, you will receive a flyer with the special phone numbers for PUSH users. Any version of PrintSmith will be supported. Please see the enclosed press release for more details. Also, as always, feel free to call or email me for more details.
 
Bar Code Scanners available
 
I sell the traditional bar code scanners that are hand held and plug (USB) into a workstation. One bar code scanner per workstation.

I also sell the wireless type, with a range of about 100 yards. They also plug into a workstation, but with the range, they can be used by multiple employees. If you go out of range, you can still scan, and when you are back in range, they "sink" with PrintSmith.

These scanners are really nice, and although alittle expensive, they save money by eliminating a few scanners and also by utilizing them, you keep track of where every job is in your shop!


Buy them here!
