RABS Digital Vouchers Are Efficient and Accurate

RABS creates efficiency & accuracy for Assistant Directors & Accounting. 

Powered by Skin® & Wrap® Technologies

Amazing For Assistant Directors

Background complete their digital startwork, or what we call the "Payroll Wizard", before they work on set.

At call, PAs & ADs use the RABS Skin® to check in background. The RABS App generates digital I-9 documents and PAs & ADs verify the background's physical IDs against their digital I-9. Their RABS Digital Vouchers & all other startwork are generated by RABS & prepared for payroll. Background move quickly into costumes & onto set. Calls are calmer & faster.

At check out, PAs & ADs can check out background with Wrap® technology in seconds, not hours. There's no more reverifying paperwork, because there is no paperwork. With a few clicks, RABS creates an automatic background breakdown & delivers the day to accounting & payroll. PAs & ADs that use RABS save so much time over the course of a show. 

HOT COSTING, STREAMLINED EDITS

Awesome for Accounting

Clean, accurate, legible digital vouchers are quite nice. But the benefits that accrue as a result of using the RABS App are better.

You don't get a stack of sloppy vouchers. There's no more peeling, scanning, or trying to decipher handwriting. 

RABS Digital Vouchers are delivered to you in app, where RABS automatically provides you an actual spend and hot cost report. 

Checking edits is a breeze, as a line item spreadsheet details the wages & payment information of each background. 

Communication and accountability from the background payroll company is streamlined. You'll always know when they access the RABS Digital Vouchers to pay background, down to the date & time.

RABS Stories & Testimonials

Skin® & Wrap® technologies ensure calls are smooth & check out is short & sweet.

The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel

In 2019, our single biggest background day was with the Amazon Prime series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. The show cast, wrangled, dressed, and paid nearly 900 BG in a single day.

With RABS, all 900 background were ready to go, I-9s completed, and finished hair, makeup, and costumes, over an hour and a half before they were needed.

The crew was able to check out all 900 within an HOUR.

RABS Testimonials

Daybreak

On our first Netflix series, Daybreak, we discovered a problem! On big days, it was too easy for BG to work without completing their RABD Digital Voucher.

This lead to our breakthrough Wrap® technology, giving ADs and PAs an entirely new set of tools to efficiently ensure BG completed their starts.

Daybreak thrived with many days with three hundred (or more) background and using the RABS Digital Voucher streamlined payroll accounting.

“In the accounting realm, RABS makes diligence practical. It’s near impossible to be as efficient and accurate with paper vouchers as it is with this system. Your company is a game changer.” - Melissa E. Payroll Accountant
RABS Testimonials

American Soul

American Soul seasons one and two discovered the ubiquity of ease of RABS Digital Vouchers. RABS technology was the only digital startwork system in the office. RABS simplified the payroll accounting and hot costing of an otherwise complex period show.

American Soul seasons one and two are afro-centric production, that we were delighted to serve. The story highlights black stories and the legendary Soul Train.
