The latest release of Mitchell 1’s Manager SE Truck Edition truck shop management software includes new technician productivity tracking features. Repair facilities using Manager SE Truck Edition can now capture productivity data as their technicians clock in and out of labor operations.

The new Technician Time Manager in Manager SE Truck Edition tracks a technician’s actual time spent on assigned jobs. The labor time manager provides an overview of hours and efficiency for each technician.  Links are provided directly back to the repair order for fast access if more detail is needed.  When actual clocked time exceeds pay hours, it is displayed in red, alerting the technicians and shop managers to review the discrepancy.

Repair shops will quickly be able to see the status of each job and how effectively their technicians are utilizing available hours.  These new features help shops keep track of their labor margin, along with employee hours, Mitchell 1 officials said in a press release.

Additional features of the latest software release include an employee shift clock and a current activity screen to verify current workloads.
