 Time Sheet

Use

The time sheet provides a standardized and application-independent time entry function for internal and external employees.

The basic idea behind the time sheet is to enter person-related working times for different applications with a single transaction. Company employees and/or service providers maintain their attendance times, periods of absence and working times personally in the system, together with information about an order, a purchase order and so on. The data is then transferred to the corresponding applications.

Integration

The time sheet is a cross-application development by SAP. Therefore, you do not need to be using any particular SAP application to be able to use the time sheet functions.

The data entered is transferred to the existing applications of Human Resources, Logistics and/or Accounting and processed in the usual way.

Prerequisites

To use the time sheet, certain settings must be made in Customizing by the system administration. For more information, see Time Sheet .
