BEIJING, April 22 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Kronos(R) Incorporated today announced that its mobile scheduling application, Workforce Mobile(TM) Scheduler, has won a 2010 Product Innovation Award from Network Products Guide, a leading information technology research and advisory resource.
News Facts
-- Workforce Mobile Scheduler streamlines the process of filling open
shifts, transforming what had been a time-consuming process that
required managers to individually call staff in an attempt to resolve
shortfalls. Now, managers can easily send shift requests to multiple
employees at once via text (SMS), Interactive Voice Response (IVR), and
email to any mobile phone including the iPhone, Blackberry, Droid, and
others. Employees can use familiar mobile technology to quickly accept
or decline shifts.
-- Workforce Mobile Scheduler is integrated with Kronos' employee
scheduling application, so shift requests automatically follow an
organization's defined business rules, and employee schedules and
timecards are automatically updated.
