Time and Labor Management

Best Practice Scenario: Time and Labor Management

The Time and Labor Management business scenario covers all aspects of managing your employees' time data. It enables you to create time accounts and time account rules, reusable time models and work schedules. It has functions for tracking and monitoring the different time recording options, enables valuation of recorded times and period-end closing, and transfer of account balances.

Time and Labor Management simplifies time administrators' daily work by enabling them to work reactively by checking alerts and worklist items in the Overview view, work proactively using the information provided in the Work view, review and change employee time data, and administer time accounts, including making balance adjustment and payouts.
Time and Labor Management is essential for a complete HR system. It is relevant if you want to run Payroll and Compensation in your HR system, and it can also run standalone, for example, if you simply want to manage project data collected in the time sheet.
