Time booking for internal employee as well as employees of vendors for project

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have a scenario where project team (both internal employee as well as employees of vendors) booked time in Primavera. Now using middleware I want to capture the time in SAP PS. Pl guide now how to capture time in SAP PS where I can have distinction of internal/external employee time booked on same project.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Rahul,

You can define them as external employees in HR. WIth reference to suppplier Purchase order reference, you can book the timesheet for the external employees.

Hi,

Thank you my mentor ! But is it possible to have stepwise guide to do that? Any document or any linkage will also work. I need to do it right from project creation, though that part is over.

Hi,

As Mahendra stated, please ask your HR team to enroll exernal employees in HR master data. Using their employee number and profile attached to them they can record their time in CAT2.

Do you have work instrucitons document describing the step by step procedure for internal employees? if yes, then just add a note highlighting the same procedure for external employees also.

Hi Rahul,

I am not sure whether any such kind of document available in PS forum. Why don't you try to develop work instrucitons document which would help you to understand better and give more insight into what is happening. Delvelop you document and post here so that I will certainly review and try to help to fix whatever may be required.

Hi Rahul,

I think following bullet points are useful for you to make sure document is having everything:

• Creation of Operative Project Structure (Project > WBSE > Network > Activities)
• Creation of HR Mini Master Data (make sure that Employee Personnel Number has IT=0315 - Timeshtee Parameters maintained) - Here you can defile EE Group and EE SubGroup for "External" Employee
• CATS - Cross Application Time Sheet: Use CAT2 to record timesheet
• CATA - To Transfer Timesheet to Individual component (actual confirmation of entered hours)

These are some of point which may be usefule for you.
