Wouldn't it be nice to simply type in the hours worked and rate of pay to figure out gross pay? With Showbiz Time Cards, that's all you need to do. After a one-time employee setup, you simply enter the work hours and click one button for hours-to-gross totals. Showbiz Time Cards calculates total hours and pay for almost every union and guild contract, 6th and 7th day calculations, meal penalties, kit rentals, French hours, split days, multi-jobs, turnaround, and more! Plus, it gives you totals for Prep/Wrap, Shoot and Section G including a fringe estimate.

One-time Employee Setup
Enter as little or as much employee information as your desire (see employee info window below). Once you've set up an employee, you'll never have to type their information again.

Enter the Hours Worked
As you enter the work hours, you'll see the total hours, meal penalties, straight time, overtime, and gold time hours instantly. Additionally, you'll know how many force call hours, minimum guarantees not met, and more!

Then Press the MagicPay Button
Click one more button and you are done. Once you click the MagicPay button, every line of detail will magically appear in the "PAY BREAKDOWN" section. Now you can leave it as is or adjust any line of detail to your liking.

Get More Accurate and Easier to Read Time Cards/Worksheets
Print your time card worksheets and attach them to the signed time cards. Or, e-mail your time cards to Media Services rapid payroll processing. Combined with Media Services' on-site check printing, there is no faster way to pay your staff and crew.

Get Reports by Week or Employee
You can generate reports for one day, one week, a month, for one production, for one employee, etc. You can see total hours worked, total prep/wrap, shoot, and Section G for any person or period of time.

Meal Penalties
Meal Penalties are automatically calculated giving you the option to call "Grace" and recognize all or only some of the meal penalties incurred.

Turnaround / Force Call Hours
If you have to pay force calls, just tell it the force call interval, e.g., 10 hours, and the software will tell you exactly how many penalty hours you incurred.

Minimum Union Guaranteed Hours Warning
If you type in a minimum guaranteed hours, you'll receive an asterisk and a warning letting you know which days the minimum was not met.

Union Force Guaranteed Hours
With the click of a button, you can force all total work hours for each day up to the minimum guaranteed hours. E.g., on a 10 hour guarantee, where they only worked 7.5 hours, the button will change the total work hours to 10 hours for that day.
