Scenario 01 · Field Ops & Payroll

Hours, receipt photos, and GPS punches flow seamlessly from field phones into your back office.

Field crews enter their own hours and reimbursable expenses (with receipt photos) from iOS, Android, or Chrome — or supervisors enter time for an entire crew at once. Payroll admins review entries in an Excel-style FIT Workstation and import directly into Sage 100 Contractor with the click of a button.

  • Automatic sync with active Sage 100 Contractor jobs, cost codes & employees
  • Optional Sign-Off add-on workflow before back-office payroll review
  • GPS start/stop punches that never overwrite payroll or job-cost hours
“Instead of spending time manually entering timesheets, we now spend that time reviewing and analyzing. Payroll is available in a timelier manner with fewer errors.”

“My favorite thing about Syscon is the staff! Without question, Syscon hires very knowledgeable employees, and it has always been a good experience working with Syscon. As a business owner, it has been a relief to be working with Syscon — knowing their expertise in cyber security, all our I.T., and we even have an employee participating in Syscon's peer group. We started over 23 years ago with Larry and Cathy Wendt. We have never considered another company to assist us with our I.T.”
