Christian Reformed World Relief Committee Saves Valuable Time with Journyx Timesheet

AUSTIN, Texas-(Business Wire)-September 14, 2009 - As a Christian relief and development organization with staff working in remote areas all over the world, the Christian Reformed World Relief Committee (CRWRC) must be as efficient as possible in how it uses staff time. For tracking employee time, the organization found that a time-tracking system based on Excel was wasting this valuable time. CRWRC now uses Journyx Timesheet for automated, Web-based time tracking and has decreased the amount of staff time involved in compiling time-keeping data, allowing the organization to focus more on its mission.

Journyx Timesheet – used by CRWRC for tracking hours worked on government grant programs – met the organization’s criteria for low band-width requirements, electronic signatures and back-up data (including sheet histories) as a valid audit trail. Journyx is also flexible enough to configure to their unique set of grant reporting needs for various U.S. and Canadian government grants.

“With Journyx Timesheet, we can see areas where staff members are overloaded with grant program work – either working on too many grants or working too many hours, even weekends. We can address these specific situations by writing more personnel costs into subsequent grant applications to hire local support staff,” said Laura Musoke, Training and Development Coordinator, CRWRC. “Timesheet has decreased the amount of staff time involved in compiling time-keeping data and eliminated time spent chasing signatures.”

According to Musoke, “Once the database is set-up, changes can be easily made to accommodate our needs, like setting up a special report for a manager, creating additional reporting categories for a grant project sub-team, etc. What is most helpful about Timesheet is its adaptability.”
