Clock in /Clock out automation and Tracking LCC.

Hello All Experts,
To keep better control over login/licence usage and to track the LCC we are planning to implement badge readers...
The isea is to send data to MES throgh batch reader when user is loging in and loging out... the same time should be reflected in clock in and clock out status as well.
We were thinking of 2 options : 1 : Install Badge reader on each node
2 : Take data from central attendance system from Company Intranet
Please suggect How we can achive this as well as which option is prefarable. Also if anyone is using LCC please suggest us some process improvement.
br,
Pushkar

Need support - Writing PCR (To find missing clock-in and clock-out)

Hi Gurus,
I need support on writing PCR on below scenario.
Scenario:
Need to determin missing clock-in and clock-out punches and generates LOP for the same.
Regards,
Raji

Hi,
In this case you need to build logic like the follow.
Assumptions: mulitiple time pairs are there.
First check employee present or not, then check data coming through time events or not then check first pair after that take HRS value as start time of first pair if yes store day balances in ABCD. in case of No check Last pair take end time store in as day balance BCDE. after that based on day balance values genearte wagetypes in another PCR.
Note: in same PCR you can store wage type aslo.

Is it possible to have Clock in and clock out times in weekly view

Hi,
We have Daily View and Weekly View in Record Working Time iview in ESS.We can set the Clock in and Clock out times in Daily view if we check the With Clock Times checkbox in Data Entry Profile.But we want to have same Clock in and Clock out in Weekly view without any developement.
If it not possible thru config how much will be the Development Effort

Hi Bala
You can have clock in and clock out in a weekly view.
you have to change the data entry profile settings.
In general settings tab in data entry profile click the with clock times button and maintain the Period type to 02 in time settings tab.
And you can view the weekly entry in clock in and clock out.

Hi,
My client want to display the Clock-in Clock-out timings recorded at the terminal (we are not using CATS) to be displayed in ESS portal.Pleae let me know where (in which node) and how to do this.
Thx

You can use Clock in clock out iview which is standard available in EHP5 too, It displays clock in events from Teven!
ie 2011 infotype

Clock in and clock out issue

Hi All,
I am looking for a solution for the below issue. Please help me out
Clock in and clock out details from third party terminal are stored in SAP in IT2011.
My requirement is if the duration between first clock in and last clock out is less than 4 hours system should consider as LOP for that day.
can you please let me know if I should a PCR or any other way.
Regards
Vish

You can do as below:
Normally time type 0000 is used for normal attendance hrs in time schema PCR's like TP09, TP10, TP11.
Before CUMBT function, call a PCR using ACTIO to do as below:
If the daily value is time type 0000 < 4.00, insert a w/t for LOP absence hrs for the day. The hrs can be as per the business rules:
a)from IT 7 - provided IT 7 has the correct data from WSR and WSR is correct.
HRS=IDAHRS           daily hrs
or
HRS=IWEHRS HRS/5    weekly hrs/5
or
b)from the DWS for that day
HRS=S        -DWS hrs including any substitution
See example below assuming 0000 time type for normal attendance hrs, 8001 time w/t for LOP hrs.
             D   HRS=D0000    HRS?4
<                HRS=IDAHRS ADDZL8001
In payroll,
- Time w/t's from time eval are imported by ZLIT function (usually in XT00 sub schema).
- PCR XPPF and its sub PCRs this w/t hrs can be used to reduce the partial pay factors e.g. /801 used to reduce the payments like basic pay, etc.
- PCR XVAL uses these factor w/t's to reduce the payments.

Clock in , clock out and absence issue

Hi friends,
In our company, planned working time is 7:00 to 16:00.
I have an approved absence request from 8:00 to 10:00, but instead of 8:00 I left company at 8:20.
So my time events are as below:
clock in = 7:00
clock out = 8:20 (instead of 8:00)
clock in = 10:00
clock out = 16:00
approved absence request = 8:00 to 10:00
my expectation from system:
delimit my absence from 8:20 to 10:00.
Which customization are necessary in which table or PCR or Schema?
I really appreciate any help you can provide.
Best Regards,
Leila

Hi Leila,
In your positive time schema, you will have to ensure that functions P2011 and P2001 don't have any parameters maintained. First call in function P2011, then function P2001 and then the custom function. The function P2002 will come in after P2001.
The input and output of your custom function will be Table TIP. You should ask your ABAPer to compare time pairs of pair type 1 (IT2011) with time pairs of pair type 2 (IT2001) in Table TIP.
Whenever there is an overlap between time pairs of IT2011 and IT2001, it means that the absence record would need to be adjusted. You should determine whether the start time or end time of the absence needs to be adjusted.
Based on that, you should pass an entry in a staging table with the details of the absence type to be replaced.
In your case, you will pass an entry in your staging table to adjust your absence type from 8:00 - 10:00 to 8:20 - 10:00. We are using the staging table because during time evaluation run, master data is locked and the custom function won't be able to update IT2001.
You also need to create a posting program which will read data from staging table and update IT2001. You should schedule this posting program as a background job at 1 hour frequency to update IT2001. In some cases, master data will be locked and hence, the posting program will leave the record in staging table. Once the record is successfully posted in IT2001, it should delete the record from staging table.
You can keep an option that the program should try to post a max of 10 times and if it is unable to post in 10 attempts, it should an email notification to the HR team regarding this.
I hope this information is helpful for you and will help you design the solution.
Thanks and regards,
Vivek Barnwal

How to delete the messages in clock-in/clock-out

Hi All,
I need to delete the messages in clock-in/clock-out which are appearing in portal, to delete this messages is there any report at R/3 side kindly suggest me help me in this
waiting for your responses .....
Regards,
Shilpa.

you can run the report RPUP1D00 for the periods that you need to delete
the messages without any problems, but please read the documentation
carefully before starting.
Please note, that RPTERR00 always reports ALL errors. It does not matter
in which period they appeared. Please destinguish between errors and
notes.
The errors which appear during a time evaluation run are stored in table
ERT in cluster B1 and in table FEHLER in cluster B2 are intended to
store and display those errors as long as the errors are not corrected.
If you don't want these errors to be displayed any more you either have
to correct the errors or you must delete Cluster B1 via report RPUP1D00.
The old NOTES are transferred from the ERT/B1 to FEHLER/B2 with each
subsequent run of time evaluation.
Your time administrators should normally work with PT40 and confirm
'I' messages or correct errors by using the error handling.
This report can be run like this
Relation ID   'B1'
Sort field    Pers.no. (eight-digit)
Delete?       X

Heartbeat time outs some times caused by clocks-out-of-sync?

Heartbeat timeouts are usually caused by the java socket communication between the master and its slaves being slow (or dead).
This slowness in turn can be caused by a system being overloaded, something than can easily happen when we're running out of memory.
Memory problems can be caused by running against file system cache, which in turns eats up all memory, etc.
Some times the java socket connection between the master and remote hosts just is slow, also causing heartbeat timeouts.
Today I had a case where, in a multi-host situation, one of the remote hosts had his clock set five minutes early.
On the master this resulted in lots of 'slow getmessage' warnings telling you that it took longer than five seconds between the time the message was sent and that it was received. These timings use both the master and the remote host's current clock values.
In above case that always meant that every message was considered five minutes late.
Then, further on during the test the remote system's clock was reset and increased by five minutes.
That was it for the heartbeat timer, because it also uses the system's clock values.
So, if you run into heartbeat problems again, check your clocks.
In your 'xxxx-0.stdout.html' file you can verify, within reason, the clock settings, for instance:
11:52:19.013 11:47:17.605 task_run_all(): 395 tasks
11:57:39.004 11:57:39.000 Slow getMessage: hd2-0 1957 301404 REQUEST_SLAVE_STATISTICS
The first time value is the timestamp from the master at the time the message was received, the second is from the slave at the time that the message was sent, and as you can see, there is a five minute difference. The next message shows the now changed clock values.
The important message of this: make sure your clocks are synchronized in a multi-host environment.
Henk.

No midi clock out on AMT8 ports 4-8

Hi, Logic 9, with daisy chained Emagic Unitor8's and AMT
Unitory8->Unitor8->Amt8
I"m getting midi clock out on all ports except the last 4. Does anyone have a suggestion on how to make this work or if it is even possible?
- Joel

Joel,
If you change the order... is it always the last 4 ports that aren't getting MIDI clock. If you use two devices Unitor8->Amt8, are you getting all 16?

Doubt Clock-In/Clock-Out Corrections

Hi,
We are implementing ESS/MSS on EHP5.
I have a doubt when configuring Clock in/Clock out corrections. In SPRO "Clock-In/Clock-Out Corrections->Define Processing Processes", I left checked only the option "Corrections Have to Be Approved".
So I started the tests. I logged on with ESS user, made a correction e saved. After that I logged on POWL with the MSS user (who is the managet of the employee whose made de correction) and the entry was there. I approved, run the report RPTCORPOST and the entry was saved in TEVEN (IT 2011) table. That was perfect!!!
I went throught the second test, now with manager performing the correction for his employee. I logged with MSS user, selected the employee, made the correction and saved. In my mind, if the manager is correcting a clock-in/clock-out, it should be approved automatically. So, I run the report RPTCORPOST and the entry wasn´t saved in TEVEN (IT 2011) table. I thougth that weird, and i decided to check if the entry could be in POWL. I went to POWL and the entry was there, waiting to be approved.
The question is: Shouldn´t the entry be automatically approved when the manager performs a correction for his employees?
Thanks
Bruno

Hi Siddharth,
Thanks for your prompt reply. I will notifiy my customer that this behaviour is an enhance.
As a suggestion for the future ESS/MSS version, the solution could allow setup this configuration.
Thank you again.
Bruno.

hello
I want to check clock-in and clock-out pepole for each business event type
how to check it?

Hi Mas,
If you are using clock-in/out for each session of any trining you should look the data in time management module if you are using it. Go into PA30 and look at infotype 2011.

Clock in Clock Out

Hi,
After running the time evaluation the clock in and clock out corrections is not appearing on the portal.
We are using CATS for service provider to enter the clock in and clock out. Is there any back ground jobs which have to be run for the data to flow into the portal or is it any configuration settings.
Request help on the matter.

Clock in clock out corrections error

Hi;
We have implemented ESS/MSS.
We have employees from 4 companies accessing the portal.
Employees of 3 companies can do their clock in clock out corrections properly.But the employees of the 4th company get a dump when they click on the clock in clock out link.
The error is as follows:
The current application triggered atermination with a short dump,error key:RFC_ERROR_SYSTEM_FAILURE.
Can any one help us with this?

Agreed with the other poster, please include details from your system dumps ST22 and SM21 logs. In addition inspect the NWA logs on the java stack to determine route failure.
Given that you have only 1 group terminating on RFC calls, it may be that this group does not have sufficient authorisation to leverage the RFC call or it may be that they use different EP System objects (should you have split EP roles) that are not configured correctly in EP. Hard to be correct since I am flying blind, but may be worth checking out.
