425 TimeKeeperPRO: A Solution Built from Real-World Experience

425 TimeKeeperPRO transforms timesheet management with its Power App solution. Its direct integration with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central streamlines the entire process with fast, easy timesheet submission and approval.

Employees no longer need to log into Business Central directly to submit their time. Instead, the app provides a simple, user-friendly tool to enter, review, and submit their time quickly and accurately.

425 TimeKeeperPRO Overview

Why 425 TimeKeeperPRO?

At 425 Consulting Group, we noticed a gap between Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central’s powerful project management tools and our practical need for time tracking. Employees found time entry cumbersome. Managers faced delays in reviewing and approving timesheets, and payroll teams spent valuable time correcting manual data entry errors. These inefficiencies slowed billing cycles, impacted cash flow, and created frustration across teams.

We knew there had to be a better way — so we built a Power App

Our experienced business applications team developed 425 TimeKeeperPRO to address these challenges. This Power App simplifies time tracking. It gives employees an easy way to track and submit their time by client and project. Managers receive automated approval notifications, helping them stay on top of reviews and keep projects moving forward.

By integrating with Business Central and Power BI, 425 Consulting transforms timesheet data into valuable analytics, providing insights into labor costs, project progress, and resource utilization.

We created 425 TimeKeeperPRO to solve a real-world problem. Since implementing the app we have seen improved efficiency, better control over project budgets, and more accurate payroll data. All with less administrative effort.
