LATHEM TIME RELEASES PAYCLOCK® EZ
Version 5
Vista Compatibility and expanded
features and integration with QuickBooks 2008 are key
features of Version 5

ATLANTA, Ga. - February 1, 2008 --
Lathem Time
Corp. introduced today PayClock® Version 5, an affordable,
easy-to-use automated time and attendance system for small
businesses. PayClock Version 5 features Windows®-based
software that runs on Windows XP or Vista PC. PayClock
Version 5, an upgrade to PayClock Express, PayClock EZ, and
PayClock Pro, can be used with Lathem’s automated
timekeeping systems, including the PC50, TouchStation™, the
PC400 and the PC100.
New software
features include Microsoft Windows Vista compatibility, a
new timecard interface, the ability to show benefit
accruals, custom fields, an in/out board and QuickBooks 2008
support. “The new software allows you to input data
directly into a software timecard that looks like the real
thing, only better since it does all the calculation work
for you,” said Philip Seagraves, Director of Business
Development, Lathem Time Corp. “It also uses the new
Microsoft Office 2007-style interface, so it’s
user-friendly. Technology changes at such a rapid pace, and
Lathem wants to ensure that today’s small businesses have
the technology they need to keep their businesses ahead of
the curve.”
Prior to the
advent of PayClock, an owner or manager had to process time
and attendance manually or invest in a highly complicated
and expensive system. But with PayClock Version 5, users
can automate this process in a fast and easy way, Seagraves
said. PayClock Version 5 reduces errors by keeping an
accurate record of employee attendance, which is then
compiled and automatically calculated into finished payroll,
factoring in wages, attendance, vacation and sick time,
lunch and break deductions. In most cases, payroll
preparation time is reduced by at least 50 percent.
One of the
most popular features of PayClock Version 5 is the direct
interface to QuickBooks®, ADP®, and Paychex®. The
interfaces allow data such as employee hours to be imported
from the PayClock system directly into a company’s preferred
payroll software, eliminating manual data entry errors while
saving time and money. The new interface provides businesses
the opportunity to implement true "punch-to-paycheck"
systems. This new software upgrade may be obtained through
an authorized Lathem dealer or Lathem directly at
