SAP off day configuration help needed

[babuilyas]

Hello Gurus,

I have a scenario in hand to configure but I think current period workschedule pattern setting doesn't allow to following:

How to configure last two Saturdays as working days every month and rest as working days. for example:

Jan: 5 Saturdays, the first 3 are off and remaining 2 are working days.

Feb: 4 Saturdays, the first 2 are off and remaining 2 are working days.

There are 2 options I just think as below:

Option 1: Update PWS (Period Work Schedule) for all 52 weeks.

- You can define OFF / WORK for each Sat in 52 weeks accordingly.

- Understood WSR should be generate yearly, so it should be a feasible option 😄

Option 2: Use IT2003 to adjust work schedule

- Update PWS and define Sat as OFF day.

- Create a program to update IT2003 for the last 2 Sat each month as Work day.

- Or vice verse: define Sat as Work, and then customized program to update IT2003 for the first 2 / 3 Sat as OFF.

Hope it helps.

Option 2 is already adopted as a temporary solution but we cannot afford generation of 30+ WSR yearly and manually.

so follow the option 1 🙂

Anw option 2, you can setup as a schedule job, so it should be feasible, but of course Option 1 is recommended.

With Option 1, you can simply configuration in excel and then copy & paste accordingly.

Option 1 is time taking job and may lead to user error. I'm searching for ABAP solution. I think it isn't possible with configuration.

Oh really??? Just design in Excel and copy & paste into SAP configuration 😄 very quick one. Each time you can copy & paste upto 17 rows 😄 u just copy and paste 3 / 4 times only 😄

Anw up to you 😄

Thanks for the efforts. We got over 25 WSRules so it is a tedious job to complete every year for all. We got it as temporary solution and programming it to automate our pattern to generate rosters.

in PT02 t.code (For your groupings and work schedules )change day type to "3" for whichever Sat want off.

or create all Saturdays (whichever client wants off) and assign them to holiday calendar and generate wsr

hi,

please confirm in a month 2 saturdays will be off or any 2 saturdays will be off .

If it is fixed after every 2 saturdays in a month other 2 saturdays should be off create schedule with PWS recurring for every 2 weeks.

create a 4 week plan as

suppose 8 hours working everyday

Create a rule for this and generate the schedule for valid dates of year .

or else the requirement is alone for specific month only 2 saturdays in the last week of month should be given create PWS for every month and generate them with valid dates of month.

Hope this give clarity.

Regards,

I tried this, and found system repeat the same in 5 weeks month as mentioned in the post and puts last Saturday as offday. However; we need to configure only last two Saturdays as working days in every month.

hi,

Generate schedule for every month that would help you.to keep last 2 saturdays as working days.

Did you configure the above pattern in the system and checked for Jan and Feb 2018 ?

I have defined a pattern with 5 weeks with first 3 with off on Saturdays and 2 working days. System repeats the sequence but it didn't follow on in next month.
