Prerequisites
Use
Workshop controllers need to have an overview of the current situation in the workshop to check the time events recorded by their technicians and correct them, if necessary. In the correction terminal, the workshop controller has the following possibilities:
- Display time stamps corresponding to certain selection criteria
- Correct a recorded time event, for example, by changing the start and end times
- Create a time stamp, for example, if an employee forgot to clock in
Prerequisites
You have checked the settings in Customizing for Dealer Business Management under Service > Time Management. Particularly if MRS is active, you have determined under Determination of Criteria for Use of Time Management > Define Criteria for Sales Organization that time stamps should be created on task level.
You have maintained HR master data for each employee.
Features
The correction terminal comprises the following functions:
- Selection of Time Stamp
- You can select time stamps using the following selection criteria:
- Personnel area
- Personnel number
- DBM order
- Cost center
- Work date
- Start time of the time stamp
- Time Stamp Overview
- The system displays a list of time stamps based on your selection criteria.
- Change Time Stamp
- Depending on the event type, the chosen posting level (header, task, or item), and the available controlling cost object (DBM order, cost center, or internal order), you can correct different data of the time stamp. When you change the data, the system runs several checks, such as whether the changed order is released or if the relevant job is approved.
- For example, you can change the start time to an earlier or later time and the system adjusts the corresponding time intervals. If a time interval of an old time stamp is now in a new time interval, the system deletes the old time interval and it will no longer be visible in the correction terminal.
- Note: You can change only one entry at a time.
- Create Time Stamp
- You can create time stamps manually. In this case, the system only creates the CATS data.
Activities
On the SAP Easy Access screen, choose Logistics > Logistics Execution > Dealer Business Management > Time Management > Correction Terminal. Alternatively, run transaction /DBM/TM_CORR_TERM. After you entered the selection criteria, the system displays the time stamp overview on the Time Stamp Overview tab.
If you choose the Create Time Stamps pushbutton or select a time stamp on the Time Stamp Overview tab and choose the Change Time Stamp pushbutton, you can enter the relevant data in a dialog box.
