Toyota in Sydney Uses TimeTec for Attendance Management

by Mr. David Azzopardi, FingerTec Australia

Needless of an introduction, Toyota Motor Corporations is one of the world's largest vehicle manufacturer. Toyota conducts its business in over 170 countries worldwide, and Australia is just one of them. Now, Sydney City Toyota, Toyota Japan’s flagship dealership for Australia, has implemented FingerTec terminals and TimeTec Web for and efficient and automated time and attendance management system.

Spread over 4 sites in Sydney City and with over 290 employees, managing time and attendance for Sydney City Toyota has previously been a challenge. And with nearly 40 managers in over 20 departments requiring the ability to manage the time and attendance for the staff within their Toyota and Lexus dealership, Sydney City Toyota looked to FingerTec Australia to provide a solution through their partner Unipay Australia. Unipay Australia, the leading payroll software choice for new car dealerships, then partnered with FingerTec Australia to provide a complete Time & Attendance and Payroll solution for Sydney City Toyota.

Over 11 TA200 plus and TA103 terminals are now located throughout the 4 sites in Sydney City to make it easy for employees to clock on/off for work. All terminals are TimeTec enabled and transmit the time and attendance data in real-time to the TimeTec Web server. And with the password login feature on TimeTec Web, all 40 managers were given the ability to simultaneously login to the FingerTec Time & Attendance system and manage their employee’s work hours easily.

Once the weekly time and attendance data has been collected and calculated in TimeTec Web, the Payroll Officer in Toyota can easily export the data from TimeTec in the Unipay Australia format to integrate it with the software.

FingerTec TA200 Plus will be installed in several branches throughout Sydney.

The project is currently at its beginning phase, with further expansion of FingerTec and TimeTec implementation being planned for in the coming months. Future integration will take place in the next 6-12 months with additional TA200 Plus terminals being added to the Service Department’s mechanic’s bays, enabling Toyota mechanics to clock on/off Repair Orders.

This job-costing integration is made possible thanks to the real-time data transfer of TimeTec Web online attendance solution by FingerTec and the common MySQL database that TimeTec Web utilizes. We hope to secure more clients with this type of integration in the future, after securing and completing a powerful reference such as Toyota.
