Definition

A display of time-dependent data in table form.

Prerequisites

You have specified time-dependent data for a Real Estate object.

Use

In the master data dialog, you often encounter 1:n relationships. For instance, a Real Estate object can have an indefinite number of measurements . If these assignments are time-dependent, in other words the value for each measurement type can be changed on a defined date, the display and processing of master data may become rather cluttered.

In the Management of Time Slots function, you can display a table of current values assigned to the real estate object. If you wish to display or process historic or future data, you can choose the given time slot by choosing Complete Period or Current Time Slot.

You can only access time slot management in the display mode. However, if you have the necessary authorization, you can jump to change mode in the time slot you currently have selected and change dates there.

Features

The system divides the periods into time slots. Each time you make a change to time-dependent data, the system records a new time slot that starts from the change date. The default value is always the current time slot.

You can display historic and future entries if the Previous Time Slot and Next Time Slot buttons are activated. The “current” time slot is the period that includes the current date.

In the complete view, current and future entries have different colors for easy identification.

Integration

Time slots are used in the following applications:
