TimeStar™ & Sage Abra Seamless Integration

What are the Advantages?

Your organization will benefit from the most seamless Sage Abra Suite integration and efficient "punch-to-paycheck" workflows of any time & attendance solution in the industry. Over the last two decades of partnership with Sage, Galaxy’s extensive TimeStar™ customer-base has evolved to the point where one in four TimeStar™ clients rely on the Abra Suite for their human resource and/or payroll operations. This strong market presence and position as a leading Sage Abra Business Partner provides benefits to your organization far beyond simply great technology including:

  • Galaxy’s strong relationship, advisory participation and open communication channel with the executive & technology leadership at Sage.

  • Ongoing TimeStar™ quality assurance and engineering efforts to verify and maintain 100% compatibility with all new Abra Suite product releases, at no additional cost to you.

  • A professional services team with a comprehensive understanding of the Abra Suite and real-world experience in Sage Abra HRMS-based "punch-to-paycheck" solutions.

  • An entire support team which includes Certified Sage Abra Technicians, each with over a decade of experience, empowered to guide you to a solution without any Abra vs. TimeStar™ "finger pointing".

  • Experience the strong commonality and coherency in user experience, terminology and workflows between the TimeStar™ and Sage Abra software solutions.

Seamless and Comprehensive Data Integration

With a TimeStar™ solution, Sage Abra serves as your single point of employee data management and the master data repository. Galaxy’s industry-leading TimeStar™ + Abra Suite integration automatically provides full table-to-table synchronization of employee and organizational data to create a truly seamless data environment and eliminate duplicate entry altogether. Unlike traditional, static "HR Master File" interfaces from other vendors, the Galaxy solution offers unparalleled flexibility and configurability for integrating a wide-range of critical HR and payroll information, including:

  • Employee profile, job and pay, employment, demographics and organizational data.
  • Supervisory hierarchies and assignments.
  • Pay group assignments.
  • Organization level structures and assignments.
  • Pay code and shift mappings and transformations.
  • Attendance plans and balances.
  • Custom Abra Suite panel information.
  • Fully-automated payroll transfer with detailed reporting.
  • …And much more.

Employee Self-Service

Abra Workforce Connections Plug-In Module

If your organization has already deployed or is considering Sage’s innovative Abra Workforce Connections (AWC) web-based employee self-service module, then TimeStar™ is an absolute must. At no additional cost, your TimeStar™ Time & Attendance Solution can be fully deployed as an integrated "plug-in" directly into AWC.

Productivity and employee satisfaction will greatly benefit as your employees and managers are empowered with anytime access to a secure, single-sign-on HRMS portal, including critical timekeeping workflows such as:

  • Web punching.
  • Leave and schedule change requests.
  • Reviewing available leave balances.
  • Viewing and maintaining work schedules.
  • Reviewing and approving time.
  • Recording expenses and mileage.
  • Analyzing attendance trends and violations.
  • Monitoring and responding to exceptions and labor management alerts.
  • Reporting and analysis.
  • …And much more.
