Evaluating Time Data

Posted by Unknown On
Purpose
The time evaluation process from the recording of time data to the use of the results determined.
Process Flow

  1. When they are hired, employees are assigned a work schedule according to which all members of the group work.
  2. Employees record their attendance times using time recording subsystems, the Cross-Application Time Sheet, or other Employee Self-Service applications, for example. Alternatively, time data can be recorded in a centralized data entry office by time data administrators.
  3. Time data administrators modify employees’ personal work schedule to conform to short-term changes, and enter absences such as leave or absence online.
  4. If time recording subsystems are used, the time events are uploaded to the SAP System.
  5. The Time Evaluation report (RPTIME00) is run for the employees to evaluate their time data. Thetime evaluation report is generally run overnight as a background job.
  6. Time evaluation compares employees’ time data to company and standard regulations and valuates it. It determines approved overtime, accrues absence entitlements, and forms (bonus) wage types. It issues messages to document special situations.
  7. If time recording subsystems are used, the SAP System downloads the balances to the subsystem in a background job.
  8. The following morning, the time data administrators process the messages issued. If messages are a frequent occurrence, the time data administrators access the Time Management pool. If messages are uncommon, the time data administrators check their SAPOffice inbox on a daily basis. If special situations occurred during time evaluation, they find a mail in their inbox. They branch directly from the inbox to the Time Management pool to process the messages.
  9. The time data administrators correct errors such as missing absence records, issue subsequent overtime approvals, or enter missing time postings.
  10. The employees receive a statement of their time accounts at the end of the payroll period. Alternatively, employees can display the current time statement in the Internet/intranet.
  11. Payroll uses the time wage types to calculate the gross wage.
