Drive time report is a way to quickly see what portion of the time your employees are engaged on a job during their clocked in hours.
We have had clients use this report to increase productivity greatly (over 10%).
If all employees are lower then you expect, it can be a sign that things could be more efficient across the board. Likewise, it may show a specific employee or group of employees being lower than expected. In all cases, we recommend emailing support@syncrew.com if you see something you do not expect because this report is sensitive to using the app exactly as designed. Some companies use the app differently, which is completely fine of course, but it can cause this report to be inacurate.
To run a Drive Time Report, do the following:
- Go to Reports in the left navigation and click Drive time reports. You will see the screen below where you enter the parameters to report on.
- Select time: Select the time period you want – please note that you can choose a week or a month and just click the drop down under your choice to pick the specific period you want.
- Select Team(s): Select the team(s) you wish to review.
- Non-productive projects: Optionally, you may add projects that are non-productive. Examples might be the office, supply house, or anywhere else the employees spend time but is not revenue generating. The report will show what percent of time is spent at these separately so owners and managers may gauge if there is an issue with too much time spent at these places.
- Click “Run”
Below is an example of what you will see when the results come back. In this case, we asked for November data for the San Francisco Team and noted that “800 Douglass, rwc” was a non-productive location.
As always, please contact us at support@syncrew.com if you have any questions.
