Hi,

First we have to get a flat file from the biometric machine , where it should get stored in SAP application server .T-code to store all these files is AL11 here the biometric data can be stored.

Once the biometric data is stored ,using ABAP program it will read the data stored in AL11, and update in IT2011 this process can be schedules in background process also.

One more thing we should get the flat file path name in AL11 T-code , it will be easy for the ABAPer to read the data based on file path name.

One of option is: you just export attendance records ( check in and check out time) in a file with format:

employee number  date time kind of time (check in and check out), after that u can using LSMW to upload into IT2011.

Or other way, build same program (very easy logic, u can request ABAPer) and update into table TEVEN (database of IT2011).

Next u can process and calculate in Time Schema: please investigate document below:
