In-house time tracking systems often lack proper records and data traceability, posing IPO compliance risks. Choosing a standardized, mature system can mitigate these risks. [Story Intro] The company purchased AceTimesheet, a R&D time tracking system, and wanted to sync attendance data from DingTalk to verify the accuracy of time entries. The pre-sales and implementation teams repeatedly warned that the free API call quota is limited and needs to be assessed in advance. But Lao A's team thought it was 'not a big deal' and decided to go live immediately. As soon as the system ran, the DingTalk API started throwing errors constantly—the daily check-in data volume far exceeded the free quota. Lao A had to approach the boss to request budget for the paid version, but got scolded: 'Why didn't you research in advance? Why wait until problems arise to solve them?' Lao A pulled out the reminder email he had ignored and was speechless.
