You can record the time you spent on a request for change and/or on a change document. It is also transferred to the assigned SAP Portfolio and Project Management (PPM) project task you are working for.

You specify how to record the time for each task type, in the Customizing activity Map Transaction Types onto Task Types. You have the options:

Synchronization with the SAP Portfolio and Project Management project is asynchronous, in the report DPR_CATS_CPR_TRANSF (Transfer of CATS Itemizations to Project Management Application), for example in a batch job. The SAP Portfolio and Project Management project has to be closed, as the report can only synchronize the data when the SAP Portfolio and Project Management project is not locked. The report collects all time recording entries from requests for change connected to tasks.

The entries in the request for change are entered at task level on the Dates and Work tab, in the field Confirmed Work.

Time Recording from a request for change to a SAP Portfolio and Project Management project task also works for the follow-up documents of the request for change (the change documents that are connected to a request for change).
