Fast entry of data allows you to create and maintain the same time infotype or subtype record for several employees at the same time.

When you use fast entry to maintain time data for several employees, you do not need to enter the data record separately for each employee. Using fast entry, you can enter data on one screen for several employees at the same time; the screens only contain the required input fields for each infotype. You can then process data for a large number of employees quickly and efficiently.

All types of processing can be carried out using the fast entry screen, including :

• Create

• Change

• Copy

• Delete

• Lock/Unlock

In addition, you can access complete infotype records from the fast entry screen.

There are three different methods for selecting the personnel numbers you want to process:

• Manually compiling a list of personnel numbers before processing from the fast entry screen.

• Entering personnel numbers directly in the fast entry screen.

• Generating a list of personnel numbers using a report based on specific search criteria.
