With AccountLinx, you can export your employees' time data from ExakTime Connect into a compatible file for MEMCO. As MEMCO may be customized to fit your company's needs, it is possible that the default AccountLinx export for MEMCO will not match your MEMCO setup exactly. Please read through this article before setting up AccountLinx to understand what is needed ahead of time.
If you have any questions or concerns during setup and/or use, you can contact us with the "Request Support" link at the top of the page and we will try to assist as best as possible. Keep in mind, however, that we are not MEMCO support. We will try to help you as much as we can, but there are aspects of MEMCO that are out of our area of expertise and your questions may be better answered by MEMCO support or your trusted contact to answer/assist.
