Allowance Totals Summary Report Overview
The Allowance Totals Summary Report within SapphireOne PayRoll/HR Mode allows the user to create summarised allowance totals reports, filtered by employees and employees department.
When the Allowance Totals Summary report is selected from the PayRoll/HR Reports menu, SapphireOne will present a print dialog screen for the user to select and customise the criteria and data they would like included within the report.
Print Destination Menu
The Print Destination Popup Menu allows the user to choose the destination for the Report, and select from the options which include Printer, Custom Report, Quick Report and Labels.
| Printer | Tells SapphireOne to send the report straight to the Printer. |
| Custom Report | This allows the user to create a custom designed report. Once it has been created the user will be able to use this option from the Print Destination menu. |
| Quick Report | Selecting this option will open the Sapphire Quick Report function. |
| Labels | Selecting this option will open the Sapphire Label Design Report Editor, allowing the user to design Labels as required. Labels can be designed and printed on a sheet or roll. |
Dictation and Speech to Text Overview
SapphireOne’s Dictation (MacOS) and Speech to Text (Windows) functionalities revolutionise data entry. These features are available for any data entry field and all inquiry screens within SapphireOne. For instance, when a user makes a call via the SapphireOne Softphone, SapphireOne automatically timestamps the contact and phone number. Post-call, users can dictate notes directly into the CRM contact memo field in relation to the stamp.
This functionality is applicable across all Data Entry screens. As examples, when entering a Vendor Invoice (VI), users can dictate memos directly. Similarly, additional lines can be added to the General Ledger account, with each line having a unique memo field. After an employee interview, users can efficiently dictate notes.
Speech to Text and Dictation are powerful tools that SapphireOne and its clients use daily, significantly saving time.
