Calgary, AB (PRWEB) October 11, 2006 – Replicon, Inc., the corporate timesheet tracking vendor of choice for businesses, today announced the launch of Web TimeOff version 2.1, the latest edition of its Web TimeOff software. Version 2.1 is the newly improved web-based employee time off tracking solution that top companies are using to automate employee vacation tracking processes. Web TimeOff is the industry leading paid time off tracking solution designed to manage employee absenteeism easily.

Significant new features to Web TimeOff version 2.1 include:

• Enhanced graphical reporting
• Banked time capabilities
• Improved filter panel
• .Net framework 2.0 support
• Simplified import/export functionality

Web TimeOff is a robust vacation scheduling software that has become an indespensible tool for many of Replicon’s clients. Its user-friendly interface eliminates time off errors and abuses that result from error-prone manual processes and paper trails. Web TimeOff features real-time calendar views, configurable and flexible usage and snapshot reporting.

Debra Jackson, Vice President of human resources and support at TruStar Federal Credit Union, describes the challenges administrators and managers needed to overcome with their previous employee vacation scheduling tracking system.

“Requests weren’t always documented, resulting in incorrect data; we had to try and rely on internal emails such as ‘Deb J. is gone for the day” to make sure we then got a paper form that was approved by the manager,” explains Jackson. “Managers did not have access to their direct reports and time off status when they needed it. There was a lack of an easily accessed, up-to date calendar of current time off for approving requests and taking member service coverage into consideration.”

At TFCU, there was one person who entered employee time off data into a spreadsheet and then manually calculated accruals and balances. This prompted a search for an automated time off tracking software. TFCU chose Replicon’s Web TimeOff for a number of reasons.

“Replicon’s Web TimeOff was able to help us remove frustration around a valued employee benefit. Managers can make better decisions because they can see how we are staffed in each department for any given day before granting employee time off requests,” says Jackson. “Paperwork that was incomplete, lost or never filled out is no longer an issue and we have accurate accruals.”

With Web TimeOff being used by all staff in all four branches everyone at TFCU is enjoying the benefits of the product. Benefits include simple deployment, rapid adoption with ease of use, total visibility of balances and accruals, streamlined approval process with a centralized system, accurate record keeping and simple reporting features.
