Kronos® Simplifying ERP solutions

Many organizations are finding that the time and labor solutions offered by their ERP vendors are unable to meet even the most basic requirements. Solutions that rely on custom code and scripting languages inherently take longer and are more expensive to implement and maintain. They also waste employees’ and managers’ valuable time by forcing them to live with sub-standard functionality.

Kronos delivers a completely configurable solution with full workforce management functionality out-of-the-box. Configurable software equals fast, low-cost, and predictable implementations that save time and money.

Recognizing the inherent deficiencies of ERP-based solutions, more and more organizations are turning to Kronos. In response to this growing demand, Workforce Central 6.1 introduces Workforce Integration Manager™, a new integration tool which makes it easier for organizations to integrate their Kronos applications with existing ERP, payroll, and human resources systems.

“Kronos extends our PeopleSoft/Oracle system and provides superior data collection and time and attendance processing capabilities without costly customization,” commented Shirley Kenyon, manager of human capital systems, Pinnacle Foods Group LLC. “Workforce Integration Manager will be impactful for Kronos customers who, like Pinnacle, want to carefully manage the flow of data between Kronos and other business systems.” Pinnacle Foods manufactures and markets convenience food products including the Duncan Hines, Mrs. Butterworth’s, and Vlasic pickles brands.
