RHG Timecard

Hi, If you're an entrepreneur like me you need a way to keep track of your buisiness hours

    RHG Timecard is an app for small business and work at home entrepreneurs that can keep track of yours and up to 12 employees hours, breaks, overtime hours, Sunday and holiday hours, and weather or not they started work on time. You can also use it for recording travel time, fieldwork time, or tons of other things you need to keep a time record of. There's also an inbox messaging feature where you can send, receive and reply to interdepartmental mail.

     RHG Timecard has a unique look and employee incentive with an 'active earth' icon in the center that moves every 1/2 hour, with the front side always representing where on the globe 12 o'clock noon is. The hidden incentive is when you open the app and the earth hasn't yet turned to your accustomed punch in time's position you are still early and will be inclined to punch in before it switches.  

    RHG Timecard also works in all time zones as it sets the correct time and 12 noon positioning of the Earth animation. You can log in, punch in, then shut down the app on your phone and even log out, but when you start RHG Timecard back up again and log in, everything's still as it was, if you were punched in you are still punched in, or if you were on break you will still be on break until you stop break or punch out. You as manager also have the ability to set all names, company names, passwords holiday dates, overtime settings, and work start time customizable for each day as well as late allowance time for yourself and your employees. Also you can view all timecards, and print out or view any week, or the entire year for any employee you choose as the records will be permanently stored including year changes so you can keep your records indefinitely.

 Technical details on how this app keeps track of worked hours: 

 If week has not changed: 

1. Punching in Records year, week, day of year, day of week, hour, minute, second and, depending on your settings, weather the employee was late. 

2. Taking break Records year, week, day of year, day of week, hour, minute and second. 

3. Return from break Records year, week, day of year, day of week, hour, minute, second and totals out break hours. 

4. Punching out Records year, week, day of year, day of week, hour, minute, second and totals out the day's hours subtracting the break hours, adding the totals to the day you punched in, so if you worked 7am to 11pm or worked 11pm to 7am the time is recorded to the day you punched in. These settings can be adjusted by the manager to allow time worked after midnight on the last day of the week or year to be recorded to the following week or year. If week or year has changed All week reports are created at the end of each week and year reports are created at the end of each year when you next punch in. 

The manager can check the week or year's progress at any time, which creates a timecard displaying the employee's current hours. However, when the employee finishes a week or year, the week or year's timecard is re totaled and overwritten with the completed week or year's results.
