needs. Jupiter for Windows automatically consolidates, calculates and processes your
information for reporting and communicating directly to your outside payroll service or
in-house payroll system. In addition, it will generate a multitude of useful management reports upon

a central PC or the employee's own workstation. Eliminate cabling and fussing with cards.
Employees simply enter their ID and PIN numbers and select IN or OUT. All information
entered is directly linked to the Jupiter for Windows software.Biometrics
Input
In cases where security and identification are major factors, JANTEK has a wide
selection of biometric data collection terminals available such as hand scanners and
fingerprint recognition systems. |
Employees
With Jupiter for Windows, setting up employees is easier than ever. Import them from
existing employee databases such as payroll service packages or human resource systems. Or
key the information in manually at the conveniently formatted entry screen. Whichever way
you choose, it only takes a few steps.
The Employee Edit Screen groups together in pages all related information and provides
links to other setup screens, allowing you easy access to policies, shifts, grouping
levels, department or job definitions and more. Entering a new employee whose pay policy
hasn't been defined yet? Click a button to create the pay policy on the fly. |
|
The entry screens also allow input of multiple pay rates for different jobs and
free-format notes with day/time stamps for Human Resource purposes.
With a digital
camera or scanner, you can associate pictures with employee files for positive
identification and badge printing purposes.

Policies
Jupiter for Windows offers maximum flexibility in setting up pay policies, covering as
many rules as possible. Since company policies, labor rules and contracts change as your
company grows, adding new policies and changing existing ones should be quick and
painless. The Policy Wizard allows the setting up of policies in simple, step-by-step
fashion.
Basic rules are grouped together in screen pages to avoid the difficulty of sorting
through strictly optional rules before the system can be up and running. On-line, context
sensitive help provides clear details on each field and button on screen, saving your
valuable time.
Attendance Management
On occasion, you may need to edit timecards (for example when an employee forgets to
punch IN or OUT). The Time Card Edit screen gives you the complete tools to quickly locate
exceptions that require correction.
The Time Card Edit screen displays all punches and calculated hours in a convenient, easy
to understand format. Buttons at the bottom of the screen allow immediate access to
editing windows and supporting information.
The exception report button provides links to all employee records, simplifying correction
procedures. Clicking on an item on the exception list immediately takes you to that
record, allowing you to make corrections with a click of a button. Another click takes you
back to the exception list for more editing.
When corrections are made to a timecard, all hours are recomputed, and required
adjustments for daily and weekly overtime are applied automatically.
Scheduler
The scheduling tools in Jupiter for Windows simplify the task of scheduling employees.
Schedules can be set up for individual employees or created for entire departments or job
designations.
Schedules can be based on employees' normal shifts, or copied from weekdays, other weeks
or other employees. Schedules may also be generated from defined repeating day cycles, or
created for whole departments in a few simple steps. A quick reference chart shows you
projected daily schedules to ensure proper staffing during peak and non-peak hours.
Calendar-type reports give employees and supervisors quick, graphic looks at their
schedules for them to note accordingly. Jupiter offers your company the power to quickly
respond to the demands of the work environment and make sound business decisions.
Auto Procedure
Jupiter for Windows can be set to execute predetermined instructions such as data
collection and reporting at certain times of the day, such as after office hours or when
the facility is closed down. Procedures can be set to run hourly, daily, weekly monthly,
or for specific dates and times.
Accruals
The Accruals module automatically calculates benefit hours such as sick and vacation
time based on your company's policies and restrictions. The system performs availability
checks when entering these hours at the time card edit screen, preventing the use and
payment of hours not yet earned.
Accrual reports display the number of hours accrued, earned, used and available for review
by supervisors and management.
Report Generator
Jupiter for Windows' Report Generator and its selection of pre-formatted reports
offers you a clear picture of your company, giving you and your department heads the
information you need to make the right decisions.
Think of it: all the time and labor reports you could ask for at the touch of a
button. Report categories include:
- Time and Attendance Reports
- Labor Reports
- Management Reports
- Human Resource Reports
- Exception Reports
- Scheduling Reports
- Audit Trail Reports
Within each of these header categories there is a further breakdown of report
selections.
Definable parameters allow you to limit the coverage of your reports.
Report Writer
Jupiter's standard reports are designed to cover as much of your needs as possible.
However, each company is unique, and you may have your own particular report requirements.
The Report Writer fills this need, allowing you to create, format and store your own
custom reports.
Archiving
The archive feature compresses and stores old time card information, freeing valuable
hard drive space and reducing system processing time by moving data off-line. All archived
information can be retrieved, viewed and printed in any of the standard report formats.
Any time period can be restored, allowing auditing of past infractions such as tardiness,
absences, and early departures, providing an invaluable way to resolve labor disputes
based on past performance. All information can be brought back to current format allowing
you to analyze labor cost information on a then/now basis.
Job Costing
The Job-Tracking module transforms the Jupiter for Windows Time and Attendance package
into a powerful shop-floor control system, giving you instant information on the
utilization of your labor resources.
With up to six user-definable grouping levels, the system automatically records and
calculates employee attendance for payroll processing and calculates all job costs to the
minute. It tracks job performance by employee and departments for review and compensation
planning, provides visibility to actual costs for accurate quoting and estimating, and
tracks actual hours worked by operation detail for lead- time improvement.
The terminals support numerous input devices such as CCD barcode and laser scanners for
rapid, accurate, on-floor data collection. The job costing report generator allows sorting
on all grouping levels, producing thousands of possible report combinations.
Payroll Interfaces
Jupiter for Windows has over 150 payroll interfaces available, allowing connectivity
to your company's payroll service provider or in-house payroll system.
Interfaces assure
that data transfers are 100% accurate and save valuable employee time. Interfaces can be
set to transfer shift differential, labor distribution and job tracking information if
required. Payroll details can be viewed and changed before final conversion and
transmission. CLICK
HERE FOR A COMPLETE LIST OF AVAILABLE INTERFACES.
Lockout
The lockout module allows managers to restrict employee punches to certain times of
the day. Default lockout times can be set for all employees for the entire facility, or
for individual employees following their shifts and schedules, controlling access and
limiting unauthorized overtime.
Backup
A complete copy of all data files can be backed up and stored in compressed format for
convenience and portability. 'When restoring data to later software versions, the backup
data structure is automatically adjusted to match the current version.
Security
Jupiter for Windows provides screen level, window based security. Each screen may be
blocked off for selected users, and details such as dollar values and personal information
may be made invisible. Users' views may be restricted to specific groups of employees.
The system also maintains full audit trails, allowing accountability and recreation of
activities for administrative purposes.
On-line Help
Jupiter for Windows comes with on-line, context sensitive help screens, including
detailed explanations for each screen as well as detail setup procedures. Each help-screen
also comes with the actual screen set to help you understand each data field.
