	Subject: [RESADM-L] Timesheet/Effort Reporting Software

	We're an A-122 research institute and use monthly time sheets as
	documentation of effort (PIs report percent effort spent on each project
	at the end of each month).  Right now, it's a manual process--employees
	fill out a paper timesheet and an administrative staff enter the data in
	the payroll system.  We are looking for an electronic time sheet/effort
	reporting system that has a web interface so PIs can do their reporting
	directly online.  Any suggestions for products we should be
	considering?  As always, a big thanks for the assist.
	Barbara
