management information requirements of both service providers and their
clients.
DATATIME is in daily use in more than 60 organisations throughout the public,
not-for-profit and private sectors. Four methods of time and activity data capture are available:

These four interchangeable options ensure that the optimum method of data
capture is available whatever the requirements and working patterns of
individual staff members. All four methods can be used in any combination and all
offer full access to all the file and coding structures offered by DATATIME.
