10/17/2012 - RAMSTEIN AIR BASE, Germany -- Training for an automated time and attendance production system, enabling civilian employees to input their own time cards, will be conducted at the Hercules Theater here Oct. 19, 10 to 11 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., and Oct. 25, noon to 1 p.m., for all civilian employees and their supervisors.

The new automated system will require each civilian to have a CAC card to submit their electronic timesheet. The Department of Defense initiative provides an automated, single source input for reporting and collecting time and attendance and labor data.

"ATAAPS makes it easier to consolidate time and attendance information to interfacing payroll and accounting systems," said 2nd Lt. Adrianna Perez, 86th Comptroller Squadron financial services flight commander.

Additional advantages to ATAAPS include time saved with labor input and error corrections.

Training will be required for all key players with the system scheduled to go live Oct. 21. It will not be until the week of Oct. 29 when parties will use this system for the first time.

The time and attendance must be entered electronically by the second Tuesday of each payroll week for certification. Certification, completed by the supervisor, is electronically entered beginning the second Tuesday of the pay period and completed by the close of business the following day.

"This new system will streamline our current processes," said Perez. "We're looking forward to being able to more easily serve our civilian employees."
