TradeSeal “In House”

Proven to be more accurate than leading ERP systems and more reliable than Microsoft Excel, HCM TradeSeal can be used as an in-house tool to calculate weekly prevailing wage and/or union payroll information.

Go beyond the basic options included in your initial TradeSeal login – access the “in house” setup guide to learn more about advanced job and union setup, Excel report generation and more.

What can TradeSeal do “in house,” without being connected to any HCM or ERP system?
