Artificial Intelligence, or AI, is really making waves in the business world. Perhaps that's why Sage recently rolled out its first AI-powered application called Sage Intelligent Time. Built right into Sage Intacct cloud ERP, it may be the first AI-based time entry system on the market. Here's an-depth look at Sage Intelligent Time and how it compares to traditional timesheet management.
What is Sage Intelligent Time?
Sage Intelligent Time is an AI-powered virtual assistant that revolutionizes time entry. The innovative Time Assistant helps your professional team ensure they account for all of their work - including unplanned and one-off activities such as email communication - that can easily fall through the cracks.
With Sage Intelligent Time, your team's timesheets and time entry is always fast and accurate. That's because the system automatically reconstructs your activities across multiple projects, collecting every minute for more accurate project billing, profitability measurement, and resource management.
Driven by Artificial Intelligence, Sage Intelligent Time actually learns from all of your previous activities and gets smarter every time you use it. Over time, the automated suggestions become more complete and virtually eliminate the need for manual intervention so your team can simply review the timesheet, make any adjustments as necessary, and send both accuracy and efficiency through the roof.
