absences, also create data records in human resources.Integration relates to the person who was involved in the accident, that is the person affected. Integration applies only to
employees and not to external persons and applicants.Prerequisites

Features
Read Working Time Data for the Person Affected
The system reads the working time data you need to process the accident from Time Management and enters it in the corresponding fields in the incident/accident log entry.
Example: Start and end of normal working time.
Transfer, Create, and Edit Absences
If accident-related absences exist in Time Management for the person affected, the system proposes them for transfer to the incident/accident log. You can select the appropriate absence and transfer it to your incident/accident log entry. You can edit an entry you have transferred. And you can also undo the transfer.
If an absence does not yet exist in Time Management, you can create an absence record in Time Management directly from the incident/accident log entry. You can only create absences that relate to an accident event.

The working time data is managed in Time Management in the time overview for an employee. The time overview comprises numerous infotypes, for example, Actions, Organizational assignment, Personal data, Planned working time, Absences, Attendances, Substitutions, Overtime.
An employee’s absences are managed in the infotype 2001 that is included in the time overview.
