Tasks are distributed between the SAP Time Management system and the time recording system as follows:

The time recording system handles time postings, such as "Clock-in", "Clock-out", "Off-site work". SAP Time Management uploads the time events, evaluates them, and, if required, sends the evaluated data back to the time recording system.

Because the SAP model company IDES is not connected to a time recording system, a generator for time events, "ZTIMECOP", was developed especially for customers who use IDES as a testing and training system.

The time events generator simulates the behavior of a time recording system and allows you to use the full Time Management functionality, without having to install interfaces to external systems.
