Which problams does Zeitscan HR solve ?

Numerous employees with HR reponsibilities are required to enter vacations, business trips, allowances, etc. An SAP HCM access just for this purpose is far too powerful and too expensive.
In many cases, this communication takes place via e-mail, fax, telephone and Excel lists. Errors and loss of time are the result, and this causes considerable costs. ZeitScan HR avoids these costs.

Employees want to know their remaining vacation or want to check their flexitime balance. If there is no easy access for everyone, the HR department becomes a call center instead of taking care of their tasks. Again, these are avoidable costs!

What possibilities does Zeitscan HR offer in detail?

• Recording of regular working hours via terminal, browser or Notes client
• Recording of special times/absences via Notes client or browser
• Entry of allowances via Notes client or browser
• Approval
• Control missing logouts and open requests in Notes client or browser
• Overtime permits
• Returning Errors from SAP HCM
• Import of timesheets from SAP HCM, display in Notes client or browser
• Master Data Import from SAP HCM
• Direct assignment of times to cost centers
• Calendar display of absences for planning
• Attendance overview of all employees
  

Check in and out using terminals, browser or HCL Notes.

In most cases, the company uses terminals for time recording of "coming + going". Zeitscan HR can read this data directly from the terminal software or transfer it from SAP HCM if terminals with an HR interface are used.
If there are no terminals, you can log in via the browser or in the Notes client; an expensive (replacement) purchase can be avoided.

In all cases, the generated document provides a complete overview of the data collected. The employee himself, his time supervisor and the HR department can view the details of the booking with one click.

• Recording of special times
  Special times are events such as holidays, doctor's visits, vocational school, works council activities, etc.
  Each employee can create such special times for themselves. These are only transferred to SAP HR once an authorized supervisor has approved them electronically. Of course, the supervisor can also enter the special times directly for his department, e.g. for employees without a PC workstation.
  The capture is done in a simple Notes mask or via a browser
  

• Recording of allowances
  The creation of allowances (e.g. for difficult or dangerous working conditions) is very similer to the creation of special times; every employee can enter allowances toether with the time worked, but they must be released by the supervisor.
  The list of possible allowances can be freely configured.

The SAP timesheet is a central element of communication between HR and employees.

The data contained here clarifies many questions and, above all (in the case of hourly-based employment contracts), is the basis for billing. Zeitscan HR imports the timesheets on a daily basis and thus provides each employee with an up-to-date insight into his or her status – without any intervention from the HR department.

The number of queries and corrections after payroll is drastically reduced!

Of course, all relevant employee data is imported from SAP HCM.


These include, but are not limited to:

• Personnel number
• Name
• Time Supervisor(s)
• Chip number for terminal use
• Cost center
• Flexitime status
• Target working hours
• Vacation days per year
• Remaining leave in the current year
  

User rights within ZeitScan HR

The rights to see, edit and approve the worked hours of each employee can be seperately configured. These rights can be imported from SAP HCM or entered manually within ZeitScan HR.

Zeitscan HR has a three-level rights model:

• The "normal" employee sees only his own worked hours. Any irregular working hours or holidays/absences which he enters must be approved by a higher level.
• The "time supervisor", typically a department manager or foreman, sees his or her own hours and the hours of the employees assigned to him. He can create irregular working hours or holidays/absences for himself and his employees; he may release these entries for his employees, but his own irregular working hours or holidays/absences must be released by a "time manager".
• The "time manager", typically located in the HR department, can see the worked hours of all employees. He can create and release irregular working hours or holidays/absences for all employees.

• irregular working hours or holidays/absences to be approved or rejected
• Allowances to be approved or rejected
• Forgotten logouts (If employees have forgotten to log out, they are forcibly logged out via SAP HR or via HR time scan after a configurable time. These time events must be closed manually)
• HR - Error messages, (Typical examples are attendance on a day for which an absence has already been entered, or an undocumented absence. These contradictions must be addressed.
  

We would be happy to provide you with a trial version of ZeitScan HR.

However, due to the complex integration with SAP HCM, this product cannot be run "out-of-the-box", and therefore a simple download does not make sense.
