What is Time Wolf Zephyr?
Time Wolf Zephyr is a proximity badge terminal that interacts with Time Wolf's automated time and attendance software. TimeWolf 4.0 is capable of time tracking, calculating standard rules (breaks, overtime, vacation, holidays, exceptions, etc.), generating detailed reports and exporting time and attendance data to most payroll applications. Simply Stated: Time Wolf Zephyr 4.0 is the latest in Time and Attendance technology that can automate your labor management process while saving you time and money.
Company Policies
Time Wolf Zephyr 4.0 is designed for single or multiple policy settings. It delivers the flexibility for intricate company configuration, while maintaining simplicity for businesses with fewer needs.
With Time Wolf Zephyr 4.0, you can easily assign policies to new employees with customized rules. You can also set the Time Wolf System to recognize how long the employee has been with the company and to change policies automatically the longer they have been with the company. Time Wolf Zephyr 4.0 lets you easily set break times, early, late and on time grace periods to your company's specifications. Time Wolf is also capable of auto deducting lunches or breaks based on time worked. Time Wolf Zephyr 4.0 uses departments, where you can have an unlimited amount of departments and organize work hours by having employees change department.
Overtime
With Time Wolf Zephyr 4.0, tracking overtime has never been easier. Calculate overtime by day, week or both. Time Wolf Zephyr 4.0 also gives you the ability to let supervisors approve or deny overtime automatically or manually.
Sick / Vacation / Holiday
Time Wolf Zephyr 4.0 allows you to enter your own accrual formulas. Employees gain accrued vacation and or sick days based on actual hours worked and the rules you specify. Time Wolf Zephyr 4.0 is also equipped to handle holidays. Meaning you can insert specified paid holidays. Time Wolf 4.o even lets you set "worked holiday rate" to track those employees working on specified holidays at special rates.
Manager & Employee Modules
Time Wolf Zephyr 4.0 comes in two different modules: the Employee module and the Manager Module. Supervisors and administrators will use the manager module to set up policies, rules and to track and make changes to time cards, reports and other company rules. The manager module also allows administrators to set security access for supervisors and managers. Meaning, you have the ability as an administrator to allow supervisors or managers to open the manager module to make changes to timecards but not see social security numbers, wages etc.
The employee module is where employees clock in and out. A very simple to use interface directs employees to enter their username and password, so that they can clock in/out. Supervisors also have the ability to allow employees to view and print specified reports from the employee module.
Automatic Backups
The automatic backup feature creates a copy of all primary data files on scheduled intervals. This feature provides added security of collected data, should primary data files become lost or corrupted.
The Zephyr Overview
The Time Wolf Zephyr is our entry level time clock, bringing you the power of an automated time and attendance terminal at a cost effective price. The Zephyr is compact in design and allows the user to clock in and out via contactless badge reader or keypad. The user also has the option of viewing their last recorded time, transferring departments, or even entering other information like tips, miles, etc.
The large LCD provides maximum readability and the on-board speaker provides audible and verbal confirmation of a complete or incomplete transaction. The Zephyr also comes with an internal bell scheduler allowing you to use the internal speaker to signal common start, end and break times. In addition, data can be optionally downloaded directly from the Zephyr, via a USB disk drive, making the Zephyr great for locations without physical connectivity. For example construction sites, landscape vehicles, etc.
The Zephyr comes standard with two easy ways to connect to the Time Wolf Time and Attendance System, a 50 inch RS-232 cable for direct communication to a PC and a TCP/IP Ethernet port for communication across a network.
How It Works
The Time Wolf Zephyr is capable of gathering user information in two simple ways. The keypad allows the employee to enter a unique PIN and password or the employee can use a contactless badge. The Time Wolf Zephyr is a "swipe and go" system, which does not require employees to select "in or out" during the time and attendance process.
The data collected by the Time Wolf Zephyr terminal is then sent to the Time Wolf Labor Management System. With Time Wolf, detailed reports can be generated, exceptions tracked, and data passed on to payroll for check processing.
