Chapter 1: Introduction
Welcome to Amano Time & Attendance Software Suite
Welcome to Time Guardian, Time Guardian Plus, and Time Guardian Pro
Should you have any comments on
the all in one, easy-
to-use Time and Attendance software. Amano’s Time and Attendance software allows you to
track and manage your employees’ time and attendance directly from your PC, which makes
the collecting, reporting and the transferring of employees’ hours to payroll companies easier
and quicker than ever before.
If this is your first time working with a time and attendance package, there may be terms that
are new to you such as Salary, Hourly, Pay Policy, Pay Code, Wages, Unit and Point. A
detailed Glossary, located in the back of this User Guide, has been provided to assist you as
you navigate through Amano’s Time & Attendance software.
