Use
Many employees, who perform a variety of different tasks, work with the Time Sheet. You can ensure the protection of personal data by using the authorization concept for the Time Sheet.

Features

Roles
Authorizations for the Time Sheet are assigned using roles. In a role, you can determine

• Which data entry profiles the user is permitted to use to enter data
• Whether the user is permitted to approve data and start evaluation reports

The Human Resources authorization concept
The authorization concept for the Time Sheet is based on the concept used in Human Resources. In HR, you can assign authorizations in very fine degrees to meet your exact requirements.

Profile authorization groups for entering working times

The role assigned to users contains all of the required authorization objects for the Time Sheet. Authorizations for entering and reading data are assigned according to the data entry profile. This enables you to control that

• Employees enter only their own personal data
• Central time administrators or data entry personnel can only maintain data for employees assigned to them
• Users can only choose from data entry profiles that are relevant to their area of work

When you maintain your profiles for the Time Sheet, you can organize them into profile authorization groups. Using all of the options available in Human Resources, you can assign the groups authorizations to read or maintain data.

Using dummy infotypes
The HR authorizations required to display and maintain personal data are supplemented by two other types of authorizations for the Time Sheet, for

1. Displaying and entering data in the time sheet
2. Displaying and approving data using time sheet reports

Time sheet data is represented in dummy infotypes for this purpose.
