Define External Application for Integration with Personnel Time Management

In this step, you name each external application used for integration with SAP HR Time Management.

To name external applications, you specify the origin of the infotype data records. Only those data records from the interface tables from the Attendances (2002), Absences (2001), and EE Remuneration Info (2010) infotypes are transferred for which the external application was defined in this table.

Example

Time data from a variety of time managment systems can be transferred to SAP HR Time Management. The external time management systems are defined as ZEXT1, ZEXT2 and ZEXT3.

Requirements

The names for the external application must be transferred accordingly by the sender system.

Standard Settings

The following names for external applications are provided in the standard SAP System:

• CATS Time Sheet (for time data from the cross-application time sheet)

• EXT External Time Management (for time data from an external time management system)

• WFP Shift Planning (for time data from SAP HR Shift Planning)

If you have more than one external time management system in operation, you must create the correct amount of corresponding names for them.

Activities

If necessary, specify the new names for the external applications.

Make sure you use the customer-specific name range. Your names must start with the letter Z.
