DBM - Time Management - CATS Transfer to CO

Hello DBM Gurus,
we are trying to set up Time Management in our DBM implementation (6.04).
the DBM transactions work and create timestamps in CATS as expected but, we seem to have a problem with the integration between CATS an CO. The entries in cats do not create CO transactions in the internal order of DBM order (no entries created in table CATSCO).
We have followed all the instructions we could find. this is still not enough.
Are there any specific steps rellevant to this problem (transfer from CATS to CO) that we might have missed?
Do you know any Cookbook or helpful help on this issue?
thanks in advance,
Daniel Gamss

You can refer this link for details process of interface data from HR and CO,PS,MM ...
[http://www.****************/showthread.php?t=11938]
Normally after book in timesheet from CAT2 ->Data will be save in CATSDB table,
after approves data will exist in CATSCO , CATSPS, CATSMM and then we use CAT5 to interface data from HR to PS, CAT7 to interface frm HR to CO ...
For you case no data exist in CATSCO ->check data already approves or not

Automatic Clock off during Midnight - DBM Time Recording

Dear Experts,
The technicians who are clocked in are automatically getting clocked off during midnight 12:00. The status ID for personnel number then turns to Absent.
We have not configured any Automatic End time in the General Settings of DBM Time Management. Also the Automatic End Time field is kept blank in the Terminal grouping configuration.
Kindly suggest.
Regards,
T.R.S.Praveen

Dear All, Currently Employee status is based just on events from current day and therefore wrong employee status was shown after midnight. This has been rectified by SAP in note 2153760 Please apply note 2153760 to resolve the above issue. Regards, T.R.S.Praveen

USE OF CATS IN Negative time management scinario

Hi Friends,
                I need your guidance on following points
    1)    Is there any relevance of using CATS in negative time management.
    2) If we have to use CATS in negative time management what should be the time management status o or 7
    3) If we transfer the data to HR management does it updates 2002 IT
Hope for your reply plz
Thanks in advance
Regards
Rajesh Rai

Rajesh,
1. CATS is very much relevant in negative time management for payment of overtime, recording absences and attendances. In CATS, the employee would enter time using activity types which needs to be mapped to the relevant attendance / absence types. After approval, the times charged in the time sheets would be transferred to infotypes 2001 / 2002 / 2010 (can be used for overtime)
You can use the data transfer reports "RPTEXTPT" for Human Resources components
Pls. refer to the below link for information
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_47x200/helpdata/en/dc/f9783b05efdb18e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
2. You can use TMSTA "9" - Time evaluation - planned times while using CATS
3. CATS data can be very much transferred to infotype 2002

Cross Applicatin Time Sheet (CATS) Vs Time Manager's Workplace

Dear Guru,
I am not an expert in HCM Module.
I would like someone to kindly do me a favour in explaining the diffent between CATS and Time Manager's Workplace.
The main objective is to select the right tool for implementing Time Sheet User Interface for "Incentive Wage/Piece Work Payroll Scheme".
Please kindly give me some light.
Thanks in advance.
Surapong

The Cross-Application Time Sheet (CATS) is a cross-application tool for recording working times and tasks. It enables you to control all business processes concerning your employeesu2019 tasks u2013 from paying the employees, through monitoring the progress of a project, to creating invoices.
Its main strength is that it enables your employees to record their own data.The Time Sheet is a cross-application component in SAP R/3.
The Time Manageru2019s Workplace is a user interface incorporating the tasks involved in administrating employee time and labor and time evaluation messages. It was specifically designed to meet the needs of time administrators in decentralized departments.
The Time Manageru2019s Workplace enables time administrators to do their daily work quickly.
The Time Manageru2019s Workplace replaces the majority of functions of the Maintain Time Data (PA61) Time Management Pool (PT40), and Time Recording for Multiple Persons and Infotypes (RPTTMW00) transactions

How many times can you transfer music

Hi,
Over the last few years we have had laptops breaking down and have had to transfer music and I was wondering how many times can you transfer from computer to another computer?
Please help because at the moment I am slightly confused!

Once you no longer use a machine, you are deactivating the iTunes library on that computer, right?
You have 5 total simultaneous activations per music library managed by a single Apple ID. As long as you deactivate unused systems, within that limit of 5, you can transfer at will.

HR-PDC , Time Management Interface Question

Hi,
I am involved in a project that links Kronos Time Management system with SAP 4.6C . Since Kronos is certified for standard interface HR-PDC, we can use it for integration without patch-work.
For more information, go to <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/developerareas/sdnservices/icc">this link</a> and on the right hand side, select Human Resources from Integration Scenarios -> Business Application Integration. Select HR-PDC from the list of interfaces available for HR.
There are a few concerns though, the most important being related to transfer of HR mini-master data. It is mentioned in the interface documentation that SAP always sends complete master data for all employees and that deltas are not supported.
Now, the customer has around 50,000 employees and sending data for each one of them every night doesn't seem to be a workable solution, especially when only 30-50 records change in a day. I understand that sending deltas can be accomplished through some tweaking, I am wondering why the standard interface won't support them, knowing the fact that all historical (delta) information is available from cluster PCL4.
Although I understand that SAP themselves are in a better position to answer the question of why the interface is like that, I am asking if anyone experienced any short-comings with sending delta information. For example, perhaps the number of scenarios for which delta was to be transferred were too many and sending complete information was more suitable. So if anyone has had previous experience of working on HR-PDC, please shed some light on their experience.
Secondly, is there a standard interface to record and send changes in Organization and Staffing (create, modifiy, delete) to a sub-system? I am talking in relation to t. code PPOME. Is HR-OCI the right interface for that???
Thanks and regards

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. It was quite helpful.
It is fine to download time balances but downloading whole employee (mini)master data each day is a bit difficult to explain to stakeholders. Perhaps I may need to create my own driver program that populates data for modified employees only. Thoughts??? Is this the correct approach???
As far as the second one is concerned, I am interested in downloading new/modified OM records like departments, jobs, positions, etc. It seems the same can be catered for by using HR-PDC through business object RCVPEVTREC, method receivePObject. I perhaps overlooked the interface specs.
Thanks again and I may get back with more questions.

Time management infotype?

Hi all,
I am working on a interface between time recording machine and R/3.
I wanna know the time event infotype and in which table is the data stored .
Regards
Arun

Hi Arun,
The data will be stored in the tables PA2002 & PA2001.
External time data is stored in the interface tables PTEX2000 and PTEXDIR by the data transfer. In addition, the data is read by the report RPTEXTPT (Transfer External Data -> Time Management) from the file PTEX2000 and stored as attendances/absences in the Attendances (2002) or Absences (2001) infotypes.
Hope this helps you.
Cheers,

Time management module

Hi,
Could you please provide the steps for end to end implementation on time management module in SAP HR?

You have to create atleast the work schedule which will consist of DWS and PSW and then work scheedule rule. Also I think you will require to configure feature SCHKZ to default work schedule rule in IT0007.
After doing this configuration you can create wagetypes related to ur time and you can pay these wage types through IT2010 ee remuneration info
if the wt will have rate then that rate you can maintain in T510 and may be to meet the complete requirement you need to write little bit code in CATS exit.
otherwise you will be able to pay through 2010 and you can enter the data thru CAT2 tcode. Just you need to create a profile and set the view for entering the data like single entry or mass entry.

Time management - Positive

Hi Expers,
I have query regarding time management. The scenario is I am doing SAP-HR implementation of manufacturing company who are using time machine to capture clock-in and clock-out time. Now they want us to upload this time data (In-time and out-time) of employee into SAP through BDC and process it accordingly as present, late, overtime and absent.
My query is :
In which time infotype do i update in-out data of employee (Is it 2001, 2002 or 2011 and then move to 2001 and 2002)
How and where do i do logic building for raw in-out data being present, absent , overtime or late.
What should be the Time Management Status (0, 7 or 9),
How do i link attendance of employee with work schedule of employee
Thanks a lot for your support.
Regards,
Jyoti

Hi,
1. It won't update the 2002 infotype, until you write coding to store the timings. If you have clock in, outs..you can upload into 2011IT. In this record pair formation is there as per standard. It you update in 2002 there is no pair formation, you have to create 2 attendance types and need to update the clock in,out. But, in 2011 no need to create/configure anything else. Here we can store the actual date of the employee timings. so better suggestion, write BDC program with abaper then upload the clock in, out. Before updating clock -in, out , maintain the 0050IT.
Time data get process in payroll by the PARTT function, if you have overtime then it will with ZLIT function time date will process in payroll. you can get the no.of working days, calendar days(present days) in in ur payslip. for this you can use TKSOLL, TSSOLL.
2. After clock out employee, system will check the excess hours of the employee, if employee worked more than work schedule hours, then system will consider as overtime i.e, excess hours after clock out.
Group A: after excess hours we can pay overtime remuneration to employee by end of the month. ZL table will pass the no.of hours into payroll system by time wage type. For this, you have create one time wage type and update the Processing class 17 - A specification.
Group B: Transfer the excess hours(overtime ) into one time type, assign this time type to absence quota in base entitlement. then you can create the leave type and assign this leave to to absence quota. then employee can take the paid leaves. or you can encash the leaves.
Group C: for 8:30 hour overtime you have to write a rule for this condition. You can convert the excess hours into leaves(as per group B), for less than 8:30 hours then need to go with PCR. and you can pay as ex-gratio by maining 14, 15IT
Group D: follow the Group B procedure.
3. for late coming purpose you have to write one rule by quering PBEG, PEND.
I hope you will understand the above.
Regards.
Devi.

Time management and Payroll

Hi Team,
_My first question:_
Kindly can you let me know how does the data go and get process in Payroll apart from the below points?
I would like to share with you my knowledge on it.
Integration between IT0007 and IT0008-Capacity utilization
After running Time evaluation Time results will get procerssed in Payroll through cluster B2.
In the payroll schema XT00 is the sub schema where Payroll takes the Time data and process in Payroll.
_My second question_
Does XT00 reads cluster B2?
_My third question_
Whether TC:PT60/Report :RPTQTA00 is used to generate quotas?
I would like to share with you my knowledge on it.
I see that in both ways they can be generated.But let me know in what cases we use PT60 and RPTQTA00.
_My fourth question_
How can we carry forward the balance quota of the previous year to the next year with specific validity dates ?
And also how can we carryforward only certain no.of quota ?
Team sorry for such a long questionnaire .Kindly help me in getting answer and clarity on the above questions.
Regards,
Vimal

Hi,
Q1:Kindly can you let me know how does the data go and get process in Payroll apart from the below points?
A1:Time evaluation integration with payroll: just as you said, but if no time eavluation run for some days in the payroll period, TC00 will be perform to run time data processing in payroll without B2 written.
Without time evaluation: sub schema TC00 will be performed to run time data processing in payroll without B2 written.
Q2:Does XT00 reads cluster B2?
A2: Yes, but depends on time management status of infotype 0007(time evaluation inte. with payroll)
Q3:Whether TC:PT60/Report :RPTQTA00 is used to generate quotas?
A3: Yes, both can generate quotas. For some simple case, or not implement time evaluation or have nothing to do with time type, you should use RPTQTA00. But for some special case, or time quota gen. with time types, you should use PT60.
Example:
case 1:Total 12 days one year, but 1 day increased each month, you should use PT60 to generate montly and increase.
case 2:Overtime transfer to leave: you should use PT60, because it relates to time type (overtime)
case 3:12 days one year, accrual at the beginning of year, you should use PT60 if you do not implement time evaluation.
Q4:How can we carry forward the balance quota of the previous year to the next year with specific validity dates ?
And also how can we carryforward only certain no.of quota ?
A4:We can use time evaluation and write some PCR to achieve or just simple to set the validity dates and deduction priority.
Hope helps,

Document on Positive Time Management & Integration with payroll

Hi,
Can any one suggest me any link from where I will get the IMG steps of Positive time management implemetation, time evaluation, time wagetype detail as well as the steps of integration with payroll..

Hi Chandrashekar,
Can you please advise how actually the transfer of clock times from time recording terminals to SAP R/3 will work?
I read from help.sap.com that there is a SAP certified CC1 interface (BAPI based) which can be used for this purpose. However, in such a case, the time recording terminals should be SAP CC1 certified.
If the time recording terminals are not SAP CC1 certified, then what is the method to be used? Will we write a custom BDC program in this scenario and what all should be considered in functional specification of such a BDC program.
Please advise.
Thanks and warm regards,
Vianshu

Please give the details about CATS and its importance.
As I am having an implementation project where in Time Management mostly it is concerned about the CATS. If any one is having the configuration document in CATS please help me.

The time recording process using CATS notebook is structured as follows:
1. The employee calls up CATS notebook.
2. The employee selects the period for which he or she wants to record working times.
3. If required, the employee selects working time attributes [Ext.] from the picklist or enters
them manually.
4. The employee enters the hours worked.
5. The employee saves the data.
6. CATS notebook checks the data entered and issues warning or error messages if
required.
7. The employee releases individual data records or all records.
