Use

This section describes time data processing in the SAP Human Resources (HR) component. You learn how to use the various forms of calendar entry and fast entry in the Time Management menu to display and maintain time data for an employee.

In the case of decentralized Time Management, a special interface can be used, which replaces many of the functions described below.

Features

The following procedures are available for maintaining and displaying time data:

You can update or display time data using the Time data menu. This option allows you to access all Time Management infotypes in the Personnel Time Management (PTIM) component, and then display or maintain them.

SAP Time Management allows you to maintain or display data using either a weekly, monthly, or annual calendar. Using calendars facilitates the fast entry of data, and also allows you to view the data record history for a selected period.

The fast entry of time management data enables you to maintain several subtype records for an employee within the same time infotype, as well as maintain one infotype for several employees. The fast entry function merely takes required entries into account. This allows you to record essential time management data more quickly and efficiently.
