Changing work hours

Hi guys, I'm using lighting 3.3, I just installed it yet for the life of me I can't figure out how to change my work hours. According to the default configuration I'm only in the office from Midnight to 4am and that's far from correct and it's not letting me schedule meeting properly.
How do I change this setting so my work hours show properly and it's easier to schedule calls and meeting with other people?
Thank you very much.

Press the alt key to make the menu bar appear if it is hidden. Then select '''Tools-Options-Calendar-Views'''

Lync Response Group Manager - cannot change opening hours

Hi all
I've run into an odd problem with Lync Response Groups with Lync 2013 Server. Just wondering if anyone has seen this before or knows of a solution. I've searched around but can't find any reference to this particular problem.
Response supervisors who are defined in the workflow and are a member of the AD group CSResponseGroupManager cannot change working hours for their response group from a custom schedule to a preset in the web interface.
If the workflow is already set to preset they can switch between existing presets, and they can switch from preset to custom. But once it has been set to custom they cannot change it back to preset.
They can select to do so but when they click Save they receive an error on the page saying "The term 'Remove-CsRgsHoursOfBusiness' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name,
or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again."
I don't believe this is by design, why would you want a workflow manager to be able to switch between presets or to custom but not back again?
If they are a member of CSResponseGroupAdministrator this works, however this is not really a solution as members of this group can edit all workflows and we don't want the managers of a workflow for one department able to access the workflows of another.
Any information greatly appreciated.

Hi
I had to abondon working on this for a while as we only had 1 Response Group in place, it wasn't too much hassle for me to do these changes myself.
However we now have about 6 Response Groups. All are managed and have a user listed as manager in the workflow, that user is also in the CSResponseGroupManager AD user group.
As previously described they can change the opening hours from between existing presets, and from preset to custom, but attempting to change back to preset from custom causes the error given previously.
This does not occur if the user is a member of CSResponseGroupAdministrator, however putting our Response Group managers in this group is not appropriate as it gives them access to all Response Groups not just their own.
Is it possible the error is due to the fact that the CSResponseGroupManager group is not giving them permission to the Remove-CSRGSHoursofBusiness cmdlet, I think PowerShell tells you a cmdlet doesn't exist if you don't have permissions to use it?

MSS: Approval of Working Hours - Working Times Changed Subsequently/Locked

Dear All,
I am facing one issue while approving the CATS working hours in portal through MSS.
We are using task TS31000007 for approval.
In our CATS profile we have input fields as:
CO Area, Send. CCtr, Activity Type, Rec. Order, Oper./Act., Work center, Plant , Att./abs. type, Wage Type, Acctg Indicator
When user enters the working hous only against Att. / abs. type, the manager gets the task and approval/rehjection happens successfully.
But when user mentions the other fields as well in addition to Att. / abs. type, and saves the hours, the manager can see the task. But when manager tries to approve/reject the working hours he gets message like below:
At this time, you cannot save the following working times since the employees working times are currently being processed or have just been changed.
Save any other data first and wait a few moments.
You can then choose Back and attempt to save the data again. Your approval decisions are retained but you might see data that is out-of-date.
Alternatively, you can restart the application to see the changes that have been made to this data.
Working Times Changed Subsequently or Locked
Employee Date Number Message
21 29.09.2008 4.00H Not possible to save: Record has changed
But when same manger tries to approve from R3 it is working perfectly.
Please let me know what is going wrong with portal ?
Thanks ,

Hello All,

Project 2013 - entering work hours at a monthly level

Hi all,
Any help with this 'hopefully small' problem will be hugely appreciated. It's not so much a problem, but
me still being new to Project - sorry! As a summary of what I am working with:
I have entered a list of tasks (all set to Manually Scheduled).
I have entered a number of resources into the Resource List.
I have also assigned relevant resources to the tasks.
Using the Task Usage view, I would now like to begin entering Work hours for the resources assigned to the
tasks. We are planning at a monthly level, so I know how many hours each resource is expecting to be spending on each task over each month.
I have set the Timescale of my Task Usage screen to a monthly scale, thinking that this would allow me to
enter total hours for each month. As an example, one of the resources assigned to a task is set for 15 hours of Work in April. It all seems to look OK on input.
My problem is however, I would like the Start and Finish fields to reflect this, and span over the months
in which the Task's resources will be doing work. It doesn't seem to pick up the month accurately. Although I have entered the 15 hours in the column labelled April, the Start and Finish dates have come out as 30/04/14 and 30/05/14 respectively. I was hoping
the Start and Finish times of that row to be 01/04/14 and 30/04/14 respectively, but they are a month out of line, and has show the work to be happening over May, not April. Is there y way I can change this?
I hope this makes sense as a question? Any help at all would be brilliant. Please do let me know if I've
missed any detail and you need some more info. I'll also continue looking through the forums to check if this has already been asked.
p.s. I tried to upload an annotated image, but my account needs to be verified first. Do I need to do anything to request this? I didn't receive any usual 'verification' links in MS's email on opening this account.
Thanks very much,
ac18

Hi John, Julie,
Thank you both very much for the help! Yes good spot, I did post it on both forums (http://www.msofficeforums.com/project/21190-project-2013-entering-work-hours-monthly-level.html) - it's been years since I've used forums of any kind, and it's great to see
experts being active across multiple sites!
I have given both suggestions a try, but unfortunately am still not quite there yet.
John, although your tip seems to work OK, I think I was hoping to find a way for the Start and Finish times to automatically span across the Work hours I have entered. If I was to then enter another 5 hours, but this time for March, the Start-Finish dates
should auto update to be 01/03/14 - 30/04/14. I understand now that this may require me to be on an Automatically Scheduled project?
Julie, your screen shot on the msofficeforums.com website is exactly what I am looking to achieve! I would like to enter month-level Work data, and that looks to be exactly that. I did try entering a zero in the month immediately after the last month that
had hours in it, but Project seemed to simply ignore it, with no visible change to the dates.
I have done some further investigating, and there does seem to be something different happening with my Project version (it's Proj Prof 2013). I have access to another computer with Project 2010 installed on it, and this doesn't seem to cause an issue. Note,
I did need to have set the tasks as Auto Scheduled.
Essentially, if I try and exactly replicate Julie's example on both versions with the following steps, I get slightly different results:
Tasks set to Auto-Scheduled.
Set Project Start Date to 01/01/14
Enter some resources.
Switch to Task Usage view.
Set the Timescales on the right hand side to: Bottom tier=Months, Middle tier=Quarters.
Enter a task.
Assign resources to the task. At this point, by default 8 hours worth of work appears for each assigned resource. In 2010, these hours appear in the January 14 column. But on my 2013 laptop however, these hours appear under the December 2013 column. Strange?
Anyway, in both cases I clear these default hours by entering zeros in their places.
I now enter 15 hours under April 2014 for one of the resources on the task.
In 2010, the Start and Finish dates of the assigned resource's row update to 01/04/14 - 30/04/14.
In 2013 however, the Start and Finish dates update to 30/04/14 - 30/05/14.
I have a feeling that this discrepancy is perhaps at the heart of my problem? Is there a setting with the application that I am not making?
Thanks again,
Arjun

Daily working hours calculation but Half an hour flexi before start of planned time & shortfall hours calculation

Dear All,
I want to calculate daily working hours but Half an hour flexi before start of planned time & shortfall hours calculation if a person didn't completed 9 hours job.
We have different types of DWS, PWS & WSR for different PS/PSA & EG/ESG groupings.
We have a requirement for Executives/Officers (E0-E8/ S1-S2) for only one PSA (1100) for only one DWS(GFLX). In this requirement I want to calculate daily working hours but Half an hour flexi before start of planned time & shortfall hours calculation if a person didn't completed 9 hours job.
Please see the requirement and my configured DWS and PCR's in detail with example and suggest me the solution:-
Overview
I want to calculate (Please take the reference from DWS screenshot)
daily working hours, but starting from first Begin Tolerance Time
Shortfall of hours if 9 hours not completed, but again starting from first Begin Tolerance Time, although employee has come before Begin Tolerance Time
I've configured one DWS as below,
Requirement:-
The planned shift timings is 9:30 - 18:30. Employees should work and complete 9 hrs in a day, but this 9 hours should be counted only from 9:00 (i.e. Begin tolerance time). It means. In time should not consider before 9:00.
1. Suppose 1st day employee punch In time is 9:00 then he has to work up to 18:00, then only 9 hours of working will be completed & no shortfall will be calculated.
In above case, if Out time is 17:00 then shortfall will be calculated 1.0 hours, because his working hours will be counted 8 hrs only.
2. Suppose 2nd day employee punch In time is 9:45 then he has to work up to 18:45, then only 9 hours of working will be completed & no shortfall will be calculated.
In above case, if Out time is 18:00 then shortfall will be calculated 0.75 hours, because his working hours will be counted 8.25 hrs only.
3. Suppose 3rd day employee punch In time is 8:30 then he has to work up to 18:00, then only 9 hours of working will be completed & no shortfall will be calculated. (In between 9:00 - 18:00 ). Here In time is 8:30 but system should consider and count from 9:00.
In above case, if Out time is 17:30 then shortfall will be calculated 0.5 hours, although he has worked 9 hrs.
4. Suppose 4th day employee punch In time is 10:11 then he will be marked as Late Come(as per DWS) and then he has to work up to 19:11, then only no shortfall will be calculated, because he completed 9 hours.
Now the below PCR is calculating Daily Working Hours,
Now the below PCR is calculating Late Coming Hours,
Overview
I know that use of begin tolerance time is different in from my requirement. Please guide me if this DWS configuration will not work.
As of now system is able to calculate Daily Working Hours (but not from the begin tolerance time), Late coming days and Late coming hours, but shortfall is not getting calculate properly.
Please give me the idea how to write PCR for these requirement, I know that my ZDHR PCR (Daily Working Hours) needs to change or replace to fulfill this requirements.
If you want any other details please let me know.
Best Regards,
Deepak

Hi Sankarsan,
After changing the function PTIP and I used GEN in PAR2, because in PAR3 error was coming.
After the changes PCR is processing as below for three different IN time :
1. when IN time is 8:45
and in this case, ZES table No Time type is showing which is wrong because he worked from 8:45 to 18:30 it means 9:30 hours (calculation should start from 9:00 am).
2. when IN time is 9:15
and in this case, ZES table Time type 9002 is showing 9.25 hours which is correct because he worked 9.25 hours.
3. when IN time is 10:30
and in this case, ZES table Time type 9003 is showing 9.00 hours which is wrong because he worked only 8 hours.
Pls suggest.
Best Regards,
Deepak

plz help with the code ..
thanks and kind regards

Hi,
Slight change in your code will work. Remember that the Headerline gets cleared inside at AT....ENDAT processing Block. You need to use an explicit workarea to take care of this.
See the BOld Code with the Changes...
Data wa like line of itab.
loop at itab .
Clear wa.
Move itab to wa.at new empid.
write :/ 'Employee Id ',wa-empid.
uline.
sum.
endat.
write :/ 'date' , itab-datee,
'time worked',itab-whours.
itab-total = 0.
itab-total = itab-total + itab-whours.
Clear wa.
Move itab to wa.
at end of empid.
uline.
write : / 'total working hours ', wa-total .
skip.
endat.
ENDLOOP.
This should solve your problem

Time updation for Support desk message and business calender working hours

Hi Experts,
I would like to know how to set the time updation of Support desk message in CRM_DNO_MONITOR. After i receive a new message in it, I can see the from timing and to timing (even after changing the status of message) as 00:00:00. Is there any standard job to automatically update the timing of message?
Also i would like to know, how to set the working hours for various days. Lets say i want to set my business hours for Monday from 10am to 6pm and for Tuesday as 9am to 5pm.
Suitable points will be rewarded.
Thanks in advance,
Naresh Dodeja.

Hi,
The reason is "created by me" selects the role "Creator" of a message/notification.
There are three roles "Creator", "Contact" or "Reporter" and "Responsible" or "Processor".
The creator is identified by his user name and the others by their BP-ID.
Therefore using the report "created by me" does not work if your users are defined for BPgen only.
That it works you have additionally to define in BP the role "BUP003 - Employee".
You find in the transaction BP for "BUP003 - Employee" in the tab "identfication" a field "User Name".
If you enter the User-ID the user has in the Solution Manager then it works.
Good look!
Best regards,
Adelbert

How to edit working hours in the calendar rules

Hi..
Does anybody know how to change the working hours in the calendar rule editor as in mine case those working hours are already frozen.
Ritu

Got the answer............
it just the game of arrow keys ;)

Add a dropdown field to the task view that determines work hours for that task.

I'm very new to MSProject. I'm entering project data for the design, review, implementation, testing and acceptance of many subroutines. The subroutines can be categorized into an enumeration of types. 1 - direct sub , easy, 2 - direct sub,
average, 3 - direct sub complex, 4 - supervisory sub easy, 5 - supervisory sub average, 6 subervisory sub complex.
I would like to create a dropdown field that once the category has been selected, the work hours are locked. For Example if I have 50 "direct sub, easy", I want to be able to change the work hours assocated with "direct sub, easy"
in only one place and have all "50 direct sub, easy" tasks automatically use the new work hours.
Is there a way to do this in MSProject?

Denis,
Okay, let's revisit the approach. If you have six defined categories and you want to select from one of those categories for each task, then you need to create a custom field with a lookup table. Let's use the Text1 field.
1. First add the Text1 field as a column in the view, I assume you're using the Gantt Chart view
2. Select the heading of that column and go to: Project/Properties group/Custom Fields
3. That will open the Custom Fields window with Text1 already pre-selected. Hit the "Lookup" button
4. In the Edit Lookup Table window, enter each of your 6 categories. You can give each a number with a description (e.g. 1 - direct sub, easy), or just put the description in the Value field (e.g. direct sub, easy) with nothing in the description.
5. Hit close
Now when you select the Text1 field for any task, the lookup list will appear allowing you to chose of the the entries. Now you can create a filter as I suggested before and go through the process of setting the work value for all like category tasks.
Hope this helps.

Resource availability during Non-Working Hours and Weekends

Hi Gurus,
Aim: Make the Resource available during Non-Working Hours and Weekends
Requirement: CRP functionality enabling
In CRC2 I have selected capacity tab and in capacity header under 'Change Interval and Shifts' button. I have Inserted a new Interval period and given the validity from/to dates(Non-Working day - Saturday) and Saved.
When i execute the Capacity Planning CM01, there is no change. The Resource availability still shows as "0"hrs for this particular date and for rest of the days it shows as 8hrs.
I have checked the same even after executing the MRP, No change in Capacity Planning Overview - Still the available Capacity Showas as 0
Please guide me, how can i use my resource during the holidays. Means make the system understand that the defined day is a working day though it is holiday as per factory calendar
Please correct me whether am i missing any settings or i should follow some other logic

Changing Working Time Project 2007

HI All
I have created a standard calendar 18 hour working day for a double shift project I am planning. I have used the change working time/options dialogue to change the standard calendar to these working hours, but when selecting the standard calendar for my
activities it still seems to hold it to 12 hours working. Any ideas. All help gratefully received. Thank-you
GB

Hi GB,
Did you follow the correct procedure ?Here are 2 links to help you:
https://support.office.com/en-ca/article/Set-working-times-vacations-and-holidays-for-your-project-8240adc0-692b-4d23-827b-a81fb560945d
http://office.microsoft.com/en-ca/project-help/set-the-working-time-for-the-project-calendar-HP045295373.aspx
Also note that you have to go to the file/options/schedule and configure hours per days and week:
Finally I'd suggest to keep the standard calendar as is since it is the one used by default for any new resources and make a copy of this standard calendar to create a new one (call it "18hrs" for example).
Hope this helps,

Visible work hours

If I'm not mistaken, earlier versions of iCal only showed those hours that were set as working hours.
It's true that I can set those hours in the Prefs, but the rest of the 24hrs day is just greyed out. I really don't have appointments between 1 and 4 a.m. - but the space I have for my real working hours is narrowed by those useless hours that I usually spend sleeping.
Have I missed something? Or should I request this feature @ Apple's?

The "Visible Work Hours" preference is definitely changed - With TIGER and my G4 I get the shaded non-work hours and "Preferences" does not get rid of them.
With my G3 the stated preferences eliminated the non-work hours completely - this shaded improvement is a pain - I, too, have little use for a 3 am appointment!
Previous versions (that only show what you have set in preferences) are not compatible with Tiger...
ICal version 2.0.2 is not even shown in the apple site as an option, but it is the version I have...

Work hours per period

Hi guys
As we know SAP calculates the work hours 173.33 based on the employee's work schedule. However, what do you do if a client has been using something else, say 176hrs? We have explained to the client how the system arrives at 173.33 hrs but client is inisting that they want to use 176hrs because that is what they have agreed upon with unions and changing the hours to 173.33 means paying the employees more on overtime as they will use this rate as the employees daily rate.
What would you recommend guys?
G

G
Ideally I think your talking about this situation. DWS =8 ,PWS=5 Weekly =40 Monthly = 52/1240 =173.33 and Yearly 5240 =2080
As per you requirement I Think client want to pay more than 176 hours worked. For this you have to maintain them in over time rules and T511k Tables , here you can also make 173.33 to 176 as these value will be reflected in IT0008 .for deriving the hourly rate of pay which is used in all the pay related calculations.

Schedule setups outside working hours

Dear Experts,
We are implementing PPDS in a process industry, setup matrixs are going to be used and in order to create a setup constraint based plan for the next 3 weeks, we use the optimizer. During the production, many of the setup changes are really long, about 5 hours and customer would like to run those setups outside the working hours, which are Monday to Friday from 06:00 to 17:00.
Manual adjustment of the operations is not a nice solution because almost all the setups are that long so we should manually re-schedule many operations. We cannot have an strategy with the option consider non working time because then we risk to have production, not only setups, outside the working hours.
Please advice.
Thanks
CTF

Hi,
I am planning to reduce the setup times that they are actually performing outside working time to 10 min so we dont need to schedule them outside working hours.
The problem is that they never produce those materials (which require long setups) during a working day if they have produced others product before, so they skip the huge setup time. How can we set up the system in a way that it actually plans to produce those articles at the beginning of a day and produce them the entire day.
Thanks
