Doubt Regarding Creating Work Schedules

Hello People,
I have recently started taking SAP HR training and currently in Time mgt module...I am stuck up in the creation of work schedules.
I have created a scenario /requirement where i have got 3 shifts in a day and i want my production people to work 24/7 in the factory as i dont want the manufacturing machine to be idle.I have created 3 shifts namely
Shift 1- 7 am - 3 pm
Shift 2- 3 pm - 11 pm
Shift 3- 11 pm - 7 am next day
I dont want the machine to be idle on any day ,so i want people to keep on continously working on the machine.Each shift has got 2 breaks.There are 3 batches of people(say 30) who are in the prod dept.
Batch 1 will work from Mon - Sat(sun day off)
Batch 2 will work from Tue - Sun (Mon day off)
Batch 3 will work from Wed - Mon(Tue day off)
Remember all the 3 batches will have one day off.i have not gone more further in time mgt(so wont be aware of shift planning ,dynamic work schedules) so will it be possible to create thework schedules for the above requirement.
Please advise me how to create DWS,Period Work Schedules and how many should i create.If anybody can clear the basic concept of creating /how to create the work schedules .
Help/Guidance would be highly appreciated.

Hi,
As Ravi said, I'd like to explain in more detail:
3 DWS needed as follows:
Shift 1:  7 am - 3 pm
Shift 2:  3 pm - 11 pm
Shift 3:  11 pm - 7 am next day
Also create a DWS for the OFF day.
Then apply these DWS' in PWS as:
001- Shift A  Shift A   ShiftA   Shift A   Shift A   Shift A    OFF
002-   OFF    Shift B    Shift B  ShiftB    Shift B    Shift B   Shift B
003- Shift C    OFF      ShiftC   Shift C   Shift C    Shift C   Shift C
While creating Work schedule Rules, we need to assign the 'Start point in PWS' field as 001 keeping 'Ref. date' field as any day which comes as Monday
Use this Period work schedule in creating your Work schedule rule and generate the WSRs.
Thanks,

But after giving ES grp, holiday calander ID etc etc when i try to save that screen that value is chainging to 22 from 00.

    Regards

    HI, there are 8 steps you need to do below:
    1. Group Personnel Subareas for the Daily Work Schedule
    2. Group Personnel Subareas for the Work Schedule
    3. Define Break Schedules
    4. Define Daily Work Schedules
    5. Define Period Work Schedules
    6. Define Employee Subgroup Groupings
    7. Define Groupings for the Public Holiday Calendar
    8. Set Work Schedule Rules and Work Schedules
    All of them belong to TIME MANAGEMENT. I think you miss some steps above.
    Please check it again.

  • How to create and implement a new work schedule rule successfully?

    Dear Community,
    How to create and implement a new work schedule rule successfully?
    In other words, what are all the basic steps to create and implement a new work schedule rule successfully?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Follow the below steps to create Work Schedule:
    Holiday Calendar
    Transaction Code: SCAL
    Holiday calendar comprises of list of paid holidays to be given to employees on festivals by the company.
    Personnel Area/SubArea Groupings
    Go to SPRO --> Time Management --->Work Schedules --> Personnel SubArea Groupings
    Maintain perosnnel area/Subarea groupings for work schedule.
    i.e. Suppose in Mumbai you have WS = GEN ( 10 to 6) and in Chennai you have WS = NORM ( 8 to 4 )
    Work Schedule
    Go to SPRO --> Time Management --->Work Schedules -->Daily Work Schedules
    Go to SPRO --> Time Management --->Work Schedules -->Period Work Schedules
    Daily Work Schedule is actually your office timings with breaks (paid /unpaid) i.e. Planned Working Time which is then included
    in Period Work Schedule to make a week ( M T W T F S S )
    Daily Work Schedule (i.e. Day) -
    > Period Work Schedule (i.e. Week)
    Work Schedule Rules
    Go to SPRO --> Time Management --->Work Schedules -->Work Schedule Rules and Work Schedules
    After doing above mentioned configurations,maintain employee group/subgroup groupings in which you have to define which calendar is applicable for which type of employees for which work schedule.
    You will maintain this work schedule in infotype 0007 - Planned Working Time of employee via transaction code - PA30

  • Config Template to create/modify Work Schedules

    I created  Excel Configuration Template to gather Tech Information from users to create work schedules:
    Config Template included PSA Groupings, the ESG Groupings, the Calendar Groupings, the Daily Work Schedules, Breaks, the Periodic Work Schedules  etc.
    When I presented this config Template to the user, sounded overwhelmed e,g, had questions like what holiday calendar grouping or PSA grouping.
    What information or form of information can I expect from the user so I can interpret to  fill the above fields?

    When we are gathering the information from the user, its usually the business terms that we use rather than the SAP terminology. For example, if we have to create a work schedule (in SAP language) we will ask the user what are the working patterns in the organisation which involves working time, working days etc., holiday calendar, breaks etc followed by the organisation basis which we create our DWS and PWS. The groupings part is something for the HCM consultant to decide and users will not be able to provide an input on that.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

    Jaydeep Jadhav

    Hi All,
    I too faced the same type of error. Below are the steps for the solution.
    1. The error comes due to retro run with incorrect workschedule rule in IT0007.
    2. You can check table  V_T508A or V_001P_ALL to view the complete groupings of your personnel area/subarea,workschedule rule, Holiday cal,
    3. Copy the existing record of IT0007>give the retro effective period as start date and enter the end date>select the populated workschedule rule from the drop down option-->save the record.
    4. Run the psyroll in simulation mode and check the status.
    Hope it may help you..
    Best Regards

  • Query on Period Work Schedule

    In my project, some employees have weekly OFF on 1st & 3rd Saturdays, but no OFF on 5th Saturday (if the month happens to have 5 Saturdays). However, all the Sundays are OFF days. How do I set up the Period Work Schedules for this case? Kindly help me.
    -Kalpana

    hi kalpana,
    Your issue is same as mine, i have rectified it with creating 12 2nd Saturday holidays and 12 3rd Saturday holidays and rest of the saturday are working.
    Create holiday with a fixed day from date. in the next screen you will get all the week days select the radio button on saturday
    and at the earliest tab at day field give 8 and month as 1 , where 8 will be the second saturday and  month 1 will be january,
    and in the same way give 15 in day field and month as 1, where 15 will be the third saturday and month 1 will be january.
    In the same way create for rest of the months. and create work schedule it will solve your issue permanently.

  • Work schedule

    hi
    i am trying to create an work schedule in TM.
    when i am trying to create work schedule rules there was a field asking for monthly working hours....
    what entry should i make it here (i know the weekly working hours)......
    thanx

    Hi Sandeep
    You will see that it will also be necessary to input yearly hrs as well.  So just divide the yearly amount by 12. For the yearly amount multiply by 52, however some clients use a different divisor the best would be to look at an existing work schedule rule to see what amount of weeks has already been used

    and only the active work schedules will be generated.
