Ideas or suggestions for tracking time sheets...

[cowboy]

I am not sure what direction I should be looking at so I was hoping to get your input.
My mom works as a secretary at a landscaping company. Right now the crew writes down on a sheet of paper where they were at what times and hand it in at the end of the day. I want to automate this system so she doesn't have to type everything in everyday.
The crew leader has a company iPhone. I am wondering if I should create an online access database or hire someone to create an app for tracking time sheets or is there already something out there that does this?


Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Daily time and attendance tracking database is probably one of the most difficult to build. It is extremely difficult to build a data entry form that looks like a timesheet covering a period with days across the page.

Our organization uses Excel as a timesheet form for entering hours and printing for submittal to payroll office. Some data entry peon inputs that data into accounting program (not Access based) which I have never seen.

I worked for another org that used a variation of that scheme. Each employee designated their default time coding which printed out on time sheet for every pay periord. Employee manually edited the code and hours as needed (pen and whiteout) and the data entry peon just had to input edits, again into a program I never saw.

I am sure there is something out there but will probably be at a price.
