Zebra is a state-of-the-art system for personnel planning, time recording and access management. Zebra is used in the retail, catering, production, logistics and administration sectors. The solution is a fast Web 2.0 application which is available at every workstation with no need for software installation. Routine tasks are automated by Zebra. Zebra is exceptionally easy to use for front-end users.
Zebra helps managers with the task of recording the hours worked by their employees, in accordance with legal and contractual requirements. The consistency check does not allow a longer than permissible shift to be recorded for a logistics employee, for example, or for breaks to be left out. In this way the system ensures that all the working time rules specified in the employment contract are observed and that any additional payments can be calculated correctly. In addition to personnel planning, Zebra also handles access authorisations. The management information system gives managers a real-time view of personnel costs right at the planning stage. This increases cost awareness and enables well-informed planning decisions to be made.
As Zebra is linked to the ERP system, it transfers the relevant wage type and amount for each employee and cost centre at period-end closing. Conversely, the ERP system provides the Zebra server with access to master data and business management data. Master data includes data relating to the organisation, cost centres and employees, including their Zebra access authorisation based on their job role. Business management data is used for the automatic calculation of anticipated personnel costs.
