IEM - Resource Management

IEM relies on integrated resource planning and time registration functionality. You can use the planning functions of manufacturing, jobs, and service to create resource tasks. Assign resources to tasks to make them load automatically into resources' timecards. Maintain timecards from within Microsoft Dynamics Business Central or through the To-Increase Resource Portal. A lifecycle that allows a flexible approval process supports time-sheet processing. The solution also includes functionality for expense claims and leave management.
