Read-only, always
BY DESIGNQueries can look, never touch. It cannot create, change or delete a single record, so there is nothing a mistyped question can break.
Permission-scoped
PER USEREvery data source checks the asker's timeware® permissions before it answers. A site manager asking about salaries gets a polite no, not a leak.
Honest when unsure
NO GUESSINGAnswers state the filters they applied so a misread question is easy to spot, and if it can't answer, it says so rather than inventing a number.
Questions
Queries, answered.
What can I ask about?
Around fifty areas of the system: employees, leave, sickness, timesheets, worked hours, rosters, roll call, training, compliance and more.
Do I need to learn a query language?
No. Questions are asked in plain English and answered in seconds.
Can everyone see everything?
No. Every answer is scoped by the asker’s permissions, exactly like the rest of timeware®.
Can it draw charts?
Yes. When a chart answers better than a table, you get a visualisation you can keep.
