The Time Evaluation With Clock Times component is used to evaluate employees’ personnel times. It processes time data that has been imported to the SAP R/3 System from time recording subsystems and data that has been recorded online.

You use this component to evaluate employees’ time data where all times that are relevant to the working time (actual times) are recorded. Processing in this component assumes that times are expressed as start and end times of work performed or of absences. The main function of the component is to classify the actual times by comparing them with the planned working time data stipulated in the daily work schedule (planned working time start and end, core times, break times). Working times that exceed the specified working time frame are recognized, and are generated as overtime if attendance approvals exist for the relevant employees.

Several processing methods (personnel calculation schemas) for time evaluation are provided in the standard system. The type of processing that you choose depends on the particular working time provisions of your country, industry, and enterprise. For this reason, the decision can only be met once you have studied the individual functions in detail. Before you choose this component, refer to the documentation on the personnel calculation schemas and the Implementation Guide:
