| # Global Registration of Hours (bptmm1201m000) Use this session to register hours for a range of employees, for example, for a public holiday. Click Spec. Employees to use the list of specific employees rather than specifying a range of employees. Note If hours are already present for an employee, LN generates an error report, depending on the Overlap Allowed setting in the Use Assignments (bptmm1204m000) session. If the Overlapping Tasks Allowed check box is selected, tasks can overlap. The employee must edit the overlapping hours manually. If, in the People Parameters (bpmdm0100m000) session, a transaction type's Direct check box is selected, that transaction type's data do not appear in the applicable session, but are automatically transferred.

Cost Type Categories that are used to register the type of costs. Cost types enable you to have a more detailed view of the source of costs. Labor Line The labor line number. Travel Line The travel line number. Activity Line The activity line number. Service Task A specification of the type of work that is carried out by a service employee. You can use tasks to specify the labor required to carry out an activity. A specific labor rate can be linked to a task. Service Department The department that is responsible for the execution of a work order. Cost Component A cost component is a collection of cost objects with a certain characteristic. A cost component does not depend on the cost type, therefore, for example, a project can be monitored from another dimension. For example, all the costs that refer to electrical work, for example, cable and installation work, are visible if the applicable cost objects are linked to the cost component Electrical work. Work Order A schedule of maintenance activities. Activity Line The activity line number. Reference Activity A group activity or a single activity (directive) that is planned for a serialized item or Installation group.

PCS Project The PCS project code. Activity Activity of the PCS project. Task An activity to manufacture or repair an item. For example, sawing, drilling, or painting. A task is carried out on a work center, and can be related to a machine. Work Center A specific production area consisting of one or more people and/or machines with identical capabilities, that can be considered as one unit for purposes of the capacity requirement planning and detailed scheduling. Machine The machine number. Machine Time A department's total machine time spent on a specific order or a specific project in a given year and period. Labor Time The unit that is used to specify the physical quantity time. Production Order An order to produce a specified quantity of an item on a specified delivery date. Operation One of a series of steps in a routing that are carried out successively to produce an item. The following data is collected during a routing operation: The task. For example, sawing. The machine used to carry out the task (optional). For example, sawing machine. The place where the task is carried out (work center). For example, woodwork. The number of employees required to carry out the task. This data is used to compute order lead times, to plan production orders and to calculate cost prices. Task An activity to manufacture or repair an item. For example, sawing, drilling, or painting. A task is carried out on a work center, and can be related to a machine. Work Center A specific production area consisting of one or more people and/or machines with identical capabilities, that can be considered as one unit for purposes of the capacity requirement planning and detailed scheduling. Machine The machine number. Machine Time A department's total machine time spent on a specific order or a specific project in a given year and period. Setup Time If this check box is selected, setup time is included. Order Production order for an assembly line station. Machine Time A department's total machine time spent on a specific order or a specific project in a given year and period. Line Station A work center that is part of an assembly line. A line station is used in the production of FAS (final assembly schedule) items. A line station can have multiple positions, which enables more than one item to be present in one line station. Assembly Line A set of consecutive line stations in which FAS (Final Assembly Schedule) items are manufactured. The items are manufactured by passing the items from line station to line station and by carrying out operations at each line station. An assembly line is subdivided into a number of line segments separated by buffers. An assembly line can be either a main line or a supplying line. Project An endeavor with a specific objective to be met within the prescribed time and financial limitation, and that has been assigned for definition or execution. Element The smallest part of an element structure. An element is used to define the (structure of the) work of the project, so that you can carry it out. Activity The smallest part of the activity structure used for a time-scaled budget. An entity that is used to represent a part of a project in an activity structure. LN distinguishes these activity types: WBS Element Control Account Work Package Planning Package Milestone Extension The specific agreements within or in addition to the initial contract. An extension falls outside the initial contract with the sold-to business partner. Extensions can be assigned to the bottom-up budget. LN distinguishes four extension types: Scope Change Provisional Amount Fluctuation Settlement Quantities to be Settled Task A type of cost carrier for the resources used in your project. These cost objects are available: Material Labor Equipment Subcontracting Sundry Costs Overhead Cost objects can be standard or specific for a project. The cost object is related to a control code for cost controlling purposes. If required, select the appropriate cost object from one of the following sessions: Standard Labor (tppdm0511m000) Project Labor (tppdm6511m000) Control Data (Labor Lines) (tpptc1536m000) Cost Component A cost component is a collection of cost objects with a certain characteristic. A cost component does not depend on the cost type, therefore, for example, a project can be monitored from another dimension. For example, all the costs that refer to electrical work, for example, cable and installation work, are visible if the applicable cost objects are linked to the cost component Electrical work. WTS A schedule used to define the number of working hours per day and distribute these hours according to different labor types. As a result, different labor rates can be used for regular time and overtime. Start Date/End Date The date on which the employee is scheduled to start working on a task, an activity, or an assignment. Start Date/End Date The date on which the employee is scheduled to stop working on a task, an activity, or an assignment. Labor Time The amount of time spent by an employee on a task or activity. Labor Type The classification of work performed, and the time of day at which the work is performed (either normal working hours or overtime). Based on the kind of work and the hour type, you can use labor types to specify surcharges so that LN can calculate the actual labor costs in People. Overlapping Tasks Allowed If this check box is selected, the start and end time of different tasks can overlap. Logistic Data The logistic entity type to which an employee's hours are allocated and to which the employee costs must be posted. In LN, hours can be allocated to the following transaction types: General Task Project PCS Project Production Order Assembly Order Service Order Work Order General Task A user-defined task that does not contribute or relate to the costs of a specific order or project. In LN, two types of general tasks exist: Indirect Task To be used for indirect hours, such as administration and general meetings, also called overhead. Absence Task To be used for absence hours, such as vacation, illness, or a doctor's visit.

Department A company's organizational unit that carries out a specific set of tasks, for example, a sales office or a purchase office. Departments are assigned number groups for the orders they issue. The department's enterprise unit determines the financial company to which the financial transactions that the department generates are posted. Cost Component A cost component is a user-defined category for the classification of costs. Cost components have the following functions: To break down an item's cost price, sales price, or valuation price. To create a comparison between the estimated production order costs and the actual production order costs. To calculate production variances. To view the distribution of your costs over the various cost components in the Cost Accounting module. Cost components can be of the following cost types: Material Costs Operation Costs Surcharge on Material Costs Surcharge on Operation Costs WIP Transfer Costs General Costs Note If you use Assembly Control (ASC), you cannot use cost components of the General Costs type. Employee/Team You can either register hours for an employee or for a team. You can later distribute the hours of a team among all team members through the Distribute Team Hours (bptmm1220m000) session. Spec. Employees Selects all (active) employees in the Specific Employees (bpmdm1140m000) session. As a result, the employee range fields become unavailable. Reset Selection Cancels the selection of specific employees. As a result, the employee range fields become available. Working Time Schedule Starts the Working Time Schedule (tcppl1100m000) session. Details Starts the Selection Details (bpmdm1800m000) session. |
