LABOR MANAGEMENT: Netchex Payroll Auto-Export 

Managing labor and payroll efficiently is crucial for hotels, but it often involves complex manual processes, data entry errors, and compliance risks. General Managers, HR teams, and finance departments struggle with ensuring accurate time tracking, calculating overtime, and handling payroll while maintaining compliance with labor laws. These challenges lead to wasted time, inflated labor costs, and operational inefficiencies, making it difficult for hotels to remain competitive. 
 
By integrating Inn-Flow Labor with Netchex, we eliminate redundant tasks and ensure accurate payroll processing, while reducing compliance risks. 

Key Features 

  • The integration requires that rates, time, and attendance all be tracked in Inn-Flow.  
  • User creation and demographics are all updated in Netchex.  
  • When a new user is created or an existing user is updated in Netchex, the information is sent automatically into Inn-Flow.  
  • When payroll is exported from Inn-Flow, rates, time and attendance are sent to Netchex automatically.
