| Working time schedules |  |
| For both a single employee and an entire team, you can easily distribute actual hours for a task by generating hours lines for a period range, using working time schedules. ERP LN calculates the actual hours per day based on the working time schedule specified in the Working Time Schedule (tcppl1100m000) session. The generated hours lines will comprise multiple Regular Time lines and possibly one or more Overtime lines. Note Overtime lines will only appear if the working time schedule includes a labor type with the Overtime hour type. Example
Monday
8:30 AM | 0:30 PM | Regular Time
1:00 PM | 5:00 PM | Regular Time
Tuesday
8:30 AM | 0:30 PM | Regular Time
1:00 PM | 5:00 PM | Regular Time
6:00 PM | 8:00 PM | Overtime
Wednesday
8:30 AM | 0:30 PM | Regular Time
1:00 PM | 5:00 PM | Regular Time
6:00 PM | 8:00 PM | Overtime
Based on a working time schedule for which you specified 30 actual hours and a date range from Monday 8:30 AM until Wednesday 8:00 PM, ERP LN will generate the folllowing hours lines:
Monday | 8:30 AM - 0:30 PM | Regular Time | 4 hours
Monday | 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM | Regular Time | 4 hours
Tuesday | 8:30 AM - 0:30 PM | Regular Time | 4 hours
Tuesday | 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM | Regular Time | 4 hours
Tuesday | 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM | Overtime | 2 hours
Wednesday | 8:30 AM - 0:30 PM | Regular Time | 4 hours
Wednesday | 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM | Regular Time | 4 hours
Wednesday | 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM | Overtime, remainder | 4 hours
The overtime is used if hours are manually entered per day, or if hours are entered for two days and the last time is overtime. The last Overtime line shows the total overtime for the date range. Note The same calculation can be carried out for machine hours. Machine hours are distributed as long as labor hours exist that must be distributed in the same process. In the hours accounting the range of hours is distributed. They can still be edited by the employee. You cannot book hours for a day that is not defined in the working time schedule, and ERP LN cannot start distributing hours from an hour that begins before the start time of the schedule day. For example, if you enter a start time for distributing hours of Tuesday 07:00 AM hours and the schedule day Tuesday starts at 08:00 hours AM, you will receive a warning. You can use working time schedules for all transaction types except for general tasks and Project hours. Related topics To use the People package To work with hours accounting |
