Integration de TimeControl et InEight Hard Dollar HD PCM
Integrating Hard Dollar's solution for project estimating and cost control with TimeControl or TimeControl Industrial for field data collection of labor and non-labor costs makes for a powerful combination. TimeControl and TimeControl Industrial include a bi-directional link with Hard Dollar's HD PCM.
HMS Software and Hard Dollar technical personnel have collaborated on integrating the power of the Hard Dollar estimating and project control system with the flexibility and extensibility of the TimeControl Industrial field data collection environment. Integrating TimeControl Industrial with HD PCM gives the best of both worlds.
The link between the systems includes numerous options. HD PCM jobs are translated into TimeControl projects. HD PCM cost items become TimeControl charge items. HD PCM resources arrive into TimeControl as TimeControl resources. In TimeControl Industrial, employees and crew timesheet entries will become costed or uncosted labor entries. These can be automatically sent back to the Job Tracking Detail screen in HD PCM as just hours or hours and costs.
In addition, TimeControl Industrial can track material consumption, equipment usage and production values. The material consumption and equipment usage can also be sent back to HD PCM in the Job Tracking Detail area as uncosted quantities or costed values. The production values can be sent back to HD as quantity completed values.
The link can support an unlimited number of jobs which can transfer data unattended on a scheduled basis or on demand at any time. Numerous configuration options allow for support of such things as HD PCM tags into TimeControl user defined fields and much much more.
