CATS rounding difference using clock times

Hello!
We are facing rounding differences during CATS recording with clock times. E.g. we record multiple entries with 5 minutes in transaction CAT2:
Clock Time -> CATS-hours
9:00 - 9:05 -> 0,08
9:05 - 9:10 -> 0,08
9:10 - 9:15 -> 0,08
9:15 - 9:20 -> 0,08
Sum of Minutes entered = 20
Sum of CATS-hours displayed = 0,32 which equals to 19 Minutes
As the number of entries increases the rounding difference get bigger.
Our company requires to-the-minutes time recording and by the way the employees get confused by the sum displayed.
Do you have any ideas to solve this issue?
Thanks in advance and best regards
Reinhard

Hello,
You should use enhancement (user-exit) CATP0001 to validate this. You should write your coding for that as well.
Link below is not that of good use but I am putting for your reference.

I have AVI files that I need to be MOV files so that I can edit them in Final Cut Pro. I am going to use Quick Time Pro for this....do I have to 'export' it or can I just 'save as', or is there even a difference? Thanks in advance for your help!

I have AVI files that I need to convert to MOV files so that I can edit them in Final Cut Pro. I am going to use Quick Time Pro for this....When I have the files open in QT Pro do I have to 'export' it or can I just 'save as', or is there even a difference? Thanks in advance for your help!

I strongly recommend you use compressor to do the conversion (if it will open the files - since quicktime will open them, it will more than likely do it.
Compressor allows you to customize presets and save them and apply them to multiple files. Although the interface may seem daunting, it's actually pretty simple.
Even if you can edit the avi in fcp, it's not a good idea. Liable to cause problems down the road.

Question about implementing a clock using a Timer object

Hello all, I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to post this question but I think so, as it regards a Swing component. I want to add a timer (a clock that starts at 0:00 and keeps track of how long the app is running) to a frame. I am just curious if using a Timer is the proper way to keep track of time, and just repaint() the clock object every second? (or more frequently if desired)... or is there a better way to do this? Thanks in advance for any comments/feedback/help!
Brian

Hello,
Timer is not accurate. You can use Timer to display your component repeteadly, and System.currentTimeMillis() at each call to deduce the elapsed time.

Payroll using time evaluation with clock times

Dear all,
I have configured an employee to have time management status 1, and my company would like to use attendance for time recording instead of time event since our clocking interface cannot provide exact clock times. I have also configured HRSIF to return 1 for all conditions.
I found every thing run correctly after creating the attendance records for all days of a payroll period while all attendance hours are equal to the planned work time. However, I have modified some of the days to attendance hours less than planned working hours (with no exact time inputted), I've noticed that the time evaluation can be processed successfully, but the attendance hours are not being calculated in the payroll result.
Does SAP actually support payroll for attendance with no exact clock time? If yes, what may I miss in my configurations?
Thanks
Steven

Hi,
Thanks for the advice.
For suggestion 1, yes, it can do I want if the attendance hours is actuall equal to the planned working hours. However, say I have a case that the planned working hours is 8, and a workman shows up for 6 hours and take 2 hours leave, the system still require me to enter the clock time in order to get the attendance and absence be calculated.
For suggestion 2, I understand that there's always be way if I do programming, however, my company decided not to do any customization, so I should first find if there's a default solution in SAP.
Thanks.

About +ive Time Mgmt with Clock Time .

Hi SAP-HR Experts .
Plz give me idea about +ive Time Mgmt with Clock Time.
I maintained , Infotype 50 , (created from 01.04.2007)
When i tried to maintained Infotype 2011 . (from 01.04.2007) record is not created , it gives
warning (date is with in selection period) when i press Enter Key over it , No record is created in infotype 2011 .
I sat feature TMSTA = 1 .
In infotype 7 , i maintained Time Mgmt status = 1 .
I want to know what Time Evaluation Report (RPTIME00) will give to me ?
How do i confirm my self that now SAP-HR is running on +ive Time Mgmt with Clock Time.?
Please guide me ...

Edited by: Rajneesh Kumar on Nov 18, 2008 6:02 AM

Hi Rajneesh,
When you run time evaluation through PT60 schema TM00 you will get the following:
1. Clock in and Clock out entry
All recorded time data documenting the actual attendance times or the actual absence times of employees.
Actual time has the opposite meaning of planned working time.
Example:
According to the work schedule, an employee is supposed to work from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on December 3, 1999 (planned working time). The actual time data (actual times) from this day is shown below:
8:00 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Attendance
2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Absence - doctor's appointment
2. SKELETON TIME
skeleton time is a time account in which payment-related times of an employee are managed.
Skeleton time is determined in time evaluation.
Example:
Skeleton time in the standard SAP System consists of:
u2022     Attendance, absence, and off-site work within a contractual period (start and end of working time)
u2022     Overtime hours that exceed approved overtime
u2022     Paid break times
3. FLEXTIME
Working time pattern in which employees can individually determine their own start and end times, as long as a certain number of hours is worked within a defined period of time each day.
*4. FILL TIME
A specific period of working time described in time evaluation that lies within the contractual start and end of working time (excluding breaks).
If an employee works a flextime schedule and is also expected to be at work at certain times (core times), then fill time indicates the difference between the start and end of working time (without breaks) and the core times
5. PRODUCTIVE TIME
The usable working time for a resource. The system determines the productive time using the working time data and utilization rate for the resource as follows:
Productive time = (End of working time - start of working time - break
duration) x Rate of utilization / 100%.
You estimate the downtime at the resource using the utilization rate.
And the results of the following will depend on your settings...
Time evaluation will update the quotas and it will form time balances
I hope this information is enough to understand...for more clarifications revert to me..

Time Recording - HRESS_A_CATS_CALUI clock times

Hello,
We are trying to use the application HRESS_A_CATS_CALUI for time recording. But it allows to record time only in 30 min intervals. There is a drop down, from where we can select e.g. 08:00 and 08:30.
Is it possible to reduce this interval or have field where it can be eneterd instead of dropd own.
Thanks!

Yes, you can reduce interval to 15 min, Follow the steps below-
Run
transaction SE80 and select package: PAOC_CATS_ESS_WDA. Select component configuration ‘HRESS_CC_CATS_CALUI_TIME_SEL’ (CATS
Calender UI Configuration for time values) of web dynpro component: ‘HRESS_C_CATS_CALUI’ (CATS Calender UI )
Double click and then click on ‘Display Configuration’ button to get following screen:
Select ‘timeDiff’ to change the interval by clicking on Edit button later. you
can select the ‘Time Difference’ as 15 minutes using dropdown while editing.

Time valuation with and without clock times --- Plzz help

hi experts
Please help me by explaining the following.
1) Please explain me the differnces between time valuation with
   clock times(T555Z) and time evluation without clock time(T555Y).
2) Please explain the differences in time types and processing types and functions procedure used in time                evaluation with clock time and in time evaluation with out clock times.
3) What is the major differences in the schema between time evaluation with clock times and with out clock   time?
Thanx in advance for help and Points will be rewarded in full.
regards,

WITH CLOCK TIME
It processes time data that has been imported to the SAP system from time recording subsystems and data that has been recorded online. Those time events (in/out timing) will be stored in 2011 which will be used in schema processing.
Without clock time
to evaluate the time data of employees who enter only exceptions to the work schedule. Processing in this component assumes that times are expressed as the duration of work, and not the start and end times of work times and employee absences
Clock times are not required for evaluation of time data
T555y is used for processing work times (function Types)
T555z is used for breaks processing in time schemas (function Types)
2. NO difference in the way they are used
3. Schema TM00 (clock times) is a standard schema, used to evaluate employee time data that has been recorded at time recording terminals and that specifies clock times.
Schema TM01 is a standard schema used to evaluate the time data of employees for whom only deviations from the work schedule are recorded.

Register exact clock times (4 digits) instead of half-hour increments in Record Working Time (Calendar User Interface)?

Hello
Is it possible to register the exact working times in the HRESS_A_CATS_CALUI WDA instead of half an hour increments?
Now:
choose between 0800 to 0830
Need:
0810 to 0825

In calendar interface, standard is 30, but if you need 15 etc you need to a modification etc, use the normal interface with clock times or in details screen you can enter clock times enable fore the cats profile using CAC1 http://scn.sap.com/thread/3678682

World Clock Time Zone Errors

Does anyone have the answer to this please. My 9500 communicator world clock facility has an error I can't seem to correct. I have it set to Home city - London and distant city Madrid (I use Madrid for Alicante) as I travel between London and Alicante frequently. There is only ever 1 hour difference in the time at either end BUT the Nokia software dictates a continual persistant TWO hours difference. Help appreciated - thanks. Dave

Had tried this before and noticed for some reason I could have one or the other turned on - never both.
Have today downloaded the latest clock release and now CAN have both turned on.
Thanks for the tip mobile_maniac.

CPU clock timer in vision builder

Hi
I need send to Ethernet port PC clock time as an inspection result in vision builder where can I find clock timer in vision builder tools? Like the tick counter in Labview.
I have used some items like active timer in system variable but I have not succeeded.
Would you please help me?
Thank you
Refa

The Active Time reports how long the inspection has been running. Why does this not work for you? It sounds like this is what you want since you're looking for something like LabVIEW's Timer. The main difference is that LV's timer starts at a random offset, and VBAI's Active Time always starts at 0 from when the inspection starts. If you want the system time, there is a System Variable called Current Time that reports the time of the system. It only reports the time to the second, so if you need more accuracy, you can use a Run LabVIEW VI to get the current time with more accuracy.
Hope this helps,
Brad

Using asynchronous timer for data flow control

Hi all,
I am using system sleep to control the data flow (some digital lines and analog output). The pseudo code is something like this
Sleep(150);
// the following sections are exectuted in parallel
#pragma omp parallel sections
    #pragma omp section
      DAQmxWriteDigitalLines(...); // output TTL to one digitla line
    #pragma omp section
      DAQmxWriteDigitalLines(...); // output TTL to another digitla line
    #pragma omp section
      Sleep(2); // sleep 2ms
// the following sections are exectuted in parallel
#pragma omp parallel sections
    #pragma omp section
      DAQmxWriteDigitalLines(...); // output TTL to one digitla line
    #pragma omp section
      DAQmxWriteAnalogScalarF64(...); // analog output to one channel
    #pragma omp section
      Sleep(1); // delay 1ms
// the following sections are exectuted in parallel
#pragma omp parallel sections
    #pragma omp section
      DAQmxWriteDigitalLines(...); // output TTL to one digitla line
    #pragma omp section
      DAQmxWriteAnalogScalarF64(...); // analog output to one channel
#pragma omp section
      DAQmxWriteAnalogScalarF64(...); // analog output to another channel
    #pragma omp section
      Sleep(11); // delay 11ms
// ... other stuffs
I am running windows XP and I know it is not possible to get realtime control but I want a as precise timing as possible. Above code is not perfect but it works 95% of times. I just read an article about using the asynchronous timer to control the time delay. I try that idea with the following code frame
int CVICALLBACK ATCallback(int reserved, int timerId, int event, void *callbackData, int eventData1, int eventData2)
if (event==EVENT_TIMER_TICK)
int *nextdelay = (int *)callbackData;
SuspendAsyncTimerCallbacks();
if (timerId>=0)
double time;
if (*nextdelay==0) time=2.0;
else if (*nextdelay==1) time=1.0;
else time=12.0;
SetAsyncTimerAttribute(timerId, ASYNC_ATTR_INTERVAL, time);
if (*nextdelay==0)
#pragma omp parallel sections
#pragma omp section
DAQmxWriteDigitalLines(...); // output TTL to one digitla line
#pragma omp section
DAQmxWriteDigitalLines(...); // output TTL to another digitla line
*nextdelay++;
else if (*nextdelay==2)
#pragma omp parallel sections
#pragma omp section
DAQmxWriteDigitalLines(...); // output TTL to one digitla line
#pragma omp section
DAQmxWriteAnalogScalarF64(...); // analog output to one channel
*nextdelay++;
else if (*nextdelay==3)
#pragma omp parallel sections
#pragma omp section
DAQmxWriteDigitalLines(...); // output TTL to one digitla line
#pragma omp section
DAQmxWriteAnalogScalarF64(...); // analog output to one channel
#pragma omp section
DAQmxWriteAnalogScalarF64(...); // analog output to another channel
*nextdelay++;
ResumeAsyncTimerCallbacks();
return 0;
void main(void)
int n = 0;
int timeid;
timeid = NewAsyncTimer(120.0/1000.0, 3, 1, ATCallback, &n);
But it doesn't work. There is no compilation and runtime error but the timing just not right. I wonder do I have to suspend the timer in the callback function when I reset the delay for next call? If I do so, I am worry if it will apply too much delay (since I suspend and resume the timer in the delay) so it will cause even worse timing. But if I don't suspend the timer before I reset the time, what happen if the code running in the callback function not finished before the next callback arrive. It is quite confusing how to use asynchronous timer in this case. Thanks.

Yeah, unfortunately the 6711 doesn't have clocked digital I/O. There are only two counters anyway so even if you could use them to generate your signals you wouldn't have enough (*maybe* something with the 4 AO channels and a counter depending on what your output signals need to look like? The AO channels can output "digital" as well if you write 0V or 5V only).
A PCI DAQ card which does support clocked digital I/O and has 2 analog outputs is the 6221 (or if you could use PCIe the 6321 is a more updated version with two extra counters and some additional functionality).
If there isn't a way to implement clocked outputs afterall, one thing you could do to make your code a little more efficient is to consolidate the writes. You can put your digital lines into a single task and write them at ocne, and you can put your analog channels into a single task and write them at once as well.
I'm not sure about the callback issue, you might find some more help in the CVI forum. I don't think it's going to solve your underlying problem though as ultimately the execution timing of your software calls is at the mercy of your OS.

How do i use my time capsule as a network to store files, etc.?

How do i use my time capsule as a network to store files, etc.?

There is no difference in setup..
Only trouble.. be warned this is quite problematic. With Mavericks even more so.
See Q3 here.
http://pondini.org/TM/Time_Capsule.html
Take particular note. The TC is not a NAS or file server.. it can be pressed into use as one.. but will suffer..
1. Slow spin up of the disk and fast spin down. Causing streaming and library issues with itunes.
2. iphoto is easily corrupted.. don't move it to a network drive at all.
3. no backup.. the TC cannot back itself up.. it is designed as a backup target for Time Machine. but Time Machine cannot backup network drives.. and nor did apple build in a backup.. it was never needed. After all it is a backup.. not a file store.
4. you cannot partition it. You will have issues with TM if you do store both data and TM backups on it.
5. You can use USB drive plugged into the TC, and experience a new definition of pain and suffering.. well slow file transfer anyway.
Good luck.

Unable to use a Time Machine backup

I am getting very frustrated, as I cannot use a Time Machine backup the way I want to.
Short story, my Macbook Pro Retina (running Yosemite) is, and have for a while been, a litte buggy and slow, so I wsh to to a clean install of OSX, and use migration assistant to recover files and settings. I have tried to to a complete restore, but this hasn´t helped.
The problem is, the migration assistant can´t find the backups. When I restart with Cmd+R and prompt a restore from TimeMachine backup, it CAN find both mine, and other backups stored on the disk. But after I do a clean install, and get to the assistant, it CAN´T find any of the backups.
The backups are on a WD 2TB disk, connected via my Mac Mini.
I have tried creating another account on the fresh install, and verify disk and permissions. One time, that actually made the assistant find the backups, but I have never been able to recreate this. I did not try to copy the files on that occation, somehow.
I don´t understand how the two backup modes works differently. Complete restore cand find the files, assistant cannot.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The backups are created via a Mac Mini sharing the Time Machine disk. My backup is created as a disk file on Timemachine/Mybackup, and the Mac Mini backup is another level down on Timemachine/backups/Macmini. I don´t know if this has anythong to do with it.
On trying to recover, I have plugged the external drive directly into the MBP.
I have had to go back and to a complete restore every time, but I am not satisfied with this result.
I have tried to explain as good as I can, and will be very grateful for hints and tips.

A possible reason for backups not to be available in Migration Assistant is that the computer doesn't have a name, or the name is corrupt. Open the Sharing preference pane and check the name. If you can't do that, reset the PRAM. Credit to ASC member Csnote for this observation.
Otherwise, starting from a clean installation of OS X, set up a new administrator account and log in. Enter Time Machine and press the key combination shift-command-C. The front window will show all mounted volumes. All snapshots should now be accessible.* Select the one you want and navigate to your home folder (in the Users folder at the top level of the old startup volume.)
You should now be able to restore your user data. I suggest you do this in two stages. Quit all applications except the Finder before you begin.
Restore all the visible items at the top level of the home folder.
Hold down the option key and select Go ▹ Library from the Finder menu bar. Enter Time Machine and restore all items in the Library folder. Log out and log back in as soon as the restore is complete.
Any other invisible folders or files at the top level of the home folder that you want to preserve will have to be restored separately. For most users, that isn't necessary.
You may have to reinstall all third-party applications from scratch. That would be the only point of doing a clean installation.
You'll have another problem because you erased the startup volume. The next time you back up, Time Machine won't recognize any files as being the same as they were before, and will make a full copy of all files. There might not be enough space on one or more of the backup volumes for that. There are different ways of dealing with that situation, depending on your needs. The easiest way is to set the backup drives aside, if possible, until you're sure you'll no longer need the data on them, then erase them and start over. Meanwhile start a new backup on one or more empty storage devices. If that solution isn't workable for you, ask for instructions.
*If you don't see any snapshots in Time Machine, exit the time-travel view and then hold down the option key while selecting
Browse Other Backup Disks...
from the Time Machine menu, which has an icon that looks like a clock running backwards. Select the backups of the computer by its previous name. If you don't have the Time Machine menu, open the Time Machine preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked
Show Time Machine in menu bar

Can I use my Time Capsule for wifi parental control?

Can I use my Time Capsule for WiFi parental control. The objective first is to use a time clock to control internet access (completely on or off). Second objective is to use the Time Capsule which is also the WiFi router for more selective internet control? Anyone out there have any tips on making this work? We have Time Warner cable feeding the house internet, which is then corrected to the 2Tb Time Capsule which also provides our WiFi. Any information including other alternatives would be most appreciated. Surely we are not the only parents on the planet with this issue. Thanks very much!

how do I get the Mac addresses for each device (this won't be a problem, I demand the device, check it, and then return it).
What wireless devices are we looking at here?
Most devices have the AirPort ID or MAC Address or Hardware Address printed on the back or bottom of the device
Otherwise, you can learn the correct number by process of elimination. Turn off all wireless devices except your Mac computer....if it is connecting using wireless.
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click on the Time Capsule icon
Look for Wireless Clients and click on the numerical IP address that is displayed
Another box will open
Look for the Hardware Address. It will be displayed as xx : xx : xx : xx :xx : xx
Write that down and note that it is your Mac.
Now, connect another wireless device and repeat the sequence. Click on the "other" listing that you see to find out more info about that device. Write down the ID or Address and note what device it is. Then power it off.
Do the same for each wireless device that you want to have limited access.
Post back when you have all the info.
