Example of Rule Source Text

Each workday an employee works one hour longer than specified in the collective agreement. For each paid work day that he is present he receives one hour as time credit. This time credit is placed in the compensation time time type. To reproduce this in a rule, use the following operations:

VARST

This operation is only used as a decision operation. General status fields can be queried (values from tables, infotypes, weekday data, and so on) or placed in the Variable key in the rule.

Operation HRS allows you to edit a field containing the number of hours from table TIP. A particular value can be placed in the number of hours field and/or values from tables, infotypes, the results from the SALDO table, or the results from TES can be retrieved. The operation HRS can be used as a decision operation and can also introduce an action.

ADDDB

Operation ADDDB introduces an action. It cumulates the value from the number of hours field in the specified time type in the TES table (daily balances)

Caution

All possible outcomes for an operation must always be considered. Errors can occur if the decision tree is not created correctly!
