Introduction

centraltime™ is a highly configurable system, so before you begin using it, you need to understand the basic concepts of the system.

centraltime™ is built around several key tables, including cost centers, employees, customers, charge-out rates, timesheets and jobs (see main components). The way these tables inter-relate and the analysis levels you build into your database dictate how the system is structured and how the reports you create operate. This inherent flexibility allows you to configure the system to suit your organizational structure, job/project management structure, job/project analysis structure, job/project charging structure and the job/project Work-Breakdown-Structure (WBS).

By overlaying the various analysis tags and levels over your internal structures, users can configure centraltime™ to support a wide range of industry sectors - as listed on the timewatch Web Site.
