Optimizing your business
 
  Efficiency    
  Retain Time reduces the amount of time spent re-keying timesheet information into systems and removes the need for paper timesheets. Staff key their timesheet information directly into the timesheet system. Timesheets are still approved by managers before they are fully accepted into the system.  
       
  Monitoring your costs    
  Managers can review the timesheet information in a number of ways that paper based timesheet systems do not allow. In particular, the cost of projects can be tracked closely with Retain Time using the Enterprise Reports. 'Drill down' reporting allows the reports to be viewed in more detail.
 
       
  Learning from your experience    
  The historic information in Retain Time can be used to aid the planning and budgeting of new projects. One of the biggest benefits of Retain Time is that it allows the comparison of the historic time spent with the original plans held in Retain Resources, if you are using both products.  
       
Putting it into practice
 
Often, people have started to use Retain Time so that they can capture the timesheet information in a more timely manner and produce their management reports more quickly without the re-keying of timesheets onto a computer. Having made this first jump, they start to analyze the timesheet information in more ways using the reporting features within Retain Time.

To get the full power out of Retain Time it is best used with Retain Resources. Analysis of the planned time against the historical time spent can be produced and used to improve the planning of, costing of and the decision as whether to take on work.
