This report creates a list of employees for time leveling. You can use the time leveling report to compare employees’ actual working times to the times documented for them in the form of time or incentive wage data. You can then make corrections or new entries so that the time data corresponds to the actual time worked. You can monitor, for example:

• Which time data is documented with special times
• Whether employees have completed their planned working hours
• Whether there are sufficient time tickets for employees who work on an incentive wage basis.

You can adjust the times, if required.

• Determining the daily working time
  In time leveling, the term working time refers to actual working time, as opposed to planned working time in infotype 0007.

• Case 1: No recording of actual times (Time Management status field has a value of 0 or 9). The working time is determined from the employee’s personal work schedule. Absences from infotype 2001 reduce the working time, and overtime from infotype 2005 increase the working time.
• Case 2: Recording of actual times (Time Management status field has a value between 1 and 8).
  The working time is calculated from the results of time evaluation (report RPTIME00). The time type flagged as productive time can be specified as a parameter for the report (for example, time transfers can be included in the cumulation of working time via this time type).

• Determining the documented time
  An employee’s documented time is calculated as follows:

• The actual labor time from incentive wage time tickets increases the documented time.
• The actual setup time from incentive wage time tickets increases the documented time.
• The actual teardown time from incentive wage time tickets increases the documented time.
• Attendances from infotype 2002 increase the documented time.
  For attendances of more than one day, the documented time is reduced each day by the time specified in the work schedule.
• Employee remuneration specifications from infotype 2010 increase the documented time.
• Time remunerated by a bonus wage type is not taken into account, however.

• Determining the planned time
  Planned time refers to the time worked in incentive wages The planned time is calculated from the planned labor time, the planned setup time, and the planned teardown time.

If actual times are recorded for employees, their working time is calculated from the results of time evaluation. The Time Leveling report only produces appropriate results if these employees have been evaluated without errors in time evaluation.

• If documented times exceed working time, the differences are green
• If documented times fall short of working time, the differences are red.

• Slight excesses or shortfalls in the minimum/maximum results are yellow
• Significant excesses or shortfalls in the minimum/maximum results are red

• You can hide employees for whom the difference between the documented time and the working time is less than the value in the Minimum field.
• If you evaluate employee who participate in incentive wages, you can also display the planned times for the time tickets and the incentive wages results (labor utilization rates, premiums), in addition to the working time, documented time and the difference. In the Planned time and Result columns for the period and day views, only values from employee-related time tickets are taken into account. Group results are displayed in the time tickets in the document view.
• If you record all employee attendances in the Attendances (2002) or Employee Remuneration Information (2010) infotypes, you can use the time leveling function to check whether your employees have completed their planned working times.
• The time leveling report allows you to compare the specifications in the employee’s personal work schedule to the confirmed times from Logistics. This is useful for employees who do not record their actual times at a time recording terminal.
• If you select employees according to the time recording administrator (in the selection screen or using matchcode L), the system displays all employees for whom the administrator is responsible on the current date (system date). If the administrator was previously responsible for an employee, but is no longer, the employee is not displayed.
  For a better system performance, use matchcode L for the selection.

In the standard system, the report first displays a list of the totaled values for the period. For each employee, an overview of the total working time, documented time, and the difference between the two is displayed.

In the period view, select a line and choose Choose. The day view appears. It displays the totaled values for each day of the selection period for the selected employee.

You can branch from the day view to the document view as follows:

1. Select a line and choose Choose.
   The document view appears. It displays the employee’s personal work schedule and, if the employee participates in incentive wages, the time tickets.
2. To display the time documents and specified times for the day, choose Display all.
3. Select a line and choose Choose.
   The corresponding infotype or incentive wage record appears. You can supplement or correct the entries directly.

You can branch to the maintenance function for time or incentive wages data from all the views by choosing Goto and Create.
If you change records or create new ones for an employee whose actual times are recorded, you must run time evaluation again (choose Time evaluation). You can then choose Refresh in the period or day view to access the up-to-date data. Changes are continuously updated in the document view.
