Cisco TimeCardView for Unified Communications 560 Now Available!
 

TimeCardView is a time and attendance system for Cisco Unity Express users on Cisco Unified IP phones connected to Cisco Unified Communications Manager Express (Cisco Unified CME) or Cisco Unified Communications Manager. The application allows you to enter and manage time-card data from different user profiles.  Cisco TimeCardView also tracks employee hours worked and provides reports to managers showing who is in the office, with the ability to import hours directly to QuickBooks.

 

The Employee View allows you to enter, review, and send time-card hours through a Cisco Unified IP Phone. With Supervisor View, you can monitor, review, and approve time cards through a Cisco Unified IP Phone or a web-based interface. The Specialist View allows administrators to use a web-based interface to import and export data, customize reports, and perform other administrative tasks. An optional QuickBooks integration allows them to move data efficiently between applications.

  • TimeCardView creates business application integration with your Cisco Unified Communications Solution, allowing your organization to be more flexible and your employees to be more productive

  • TimeCardView automatically tracks employees' working hours and enables supervisors to view employees' real time status. It provides for online review and approval of timesheets, and it can generate the reports supervisors and payroll specialists need via the Historical Reporting Client and export them to the .csv and .xls file formats

  • TimeCardView interfaces with backend accounting software such as Intuit's QuickBooks so that timesheet data can be seamlessly transferred into the accounting system, thus eliminating human error. Integration with QuickBooks is optional

  • With QuickBooks, TimeCardView also saves Cisco Unity Express administrators from having to enter employees' names into the system one by one. Instead, employee data can be imported from QuickBooks into the Cisco Unity Express system and vice versa, employee data can be exported from Cisco Unity Express to QuickBooks via TimeCardView

"Cisco App" for iPhone?
 

SAN JOSE, Calif. -- Cisco may be getting into the Apple application market, targeting business collaboration on iPhones and iPads. Later this year, Cisco will launch an app for iPhones and iPads, dubbed Cisco Quad.  At Cisco's Enterprise 2.0 conference in Boston, the networking industry leader will showcase Quad, which is described as an app that allows business users to search a wide array of content. Cisco will also showcase Mobile Quad applications for Apple's iPad and iPhone devices.

 

These apps "will enable desk-less employees to remain connected and engaged in interactions with their colleagues around the globe," explained Cisco in a statement released late last week.  Successful early trials of the Quad technology have already been completed, according to Cisco. The technology is rumored to be available on a limited basis during the first quarter of the company's fiscal 2011.
