Recalculating Activities in Time and Attendance

This document explains the two ways of recalculating activity times in Time and Attendance. The need to recalculate activities generally arises when you have adjusted incorrect activity transactions.

Outcome

Activity times are recalculated and totaled for further review. The MTMPRE and MTMPRD files are updated.

Calculated activity times can be reviewed to get an overview of time spent on tasks other than normal work tasks.

Before you start

  • Only activity times that fall between the employee's actual clocked in and out times (via 'Clock In/Out Transaction. Report' (TMS001)) will be calculated. For example, if the employee clocks in at 8 a.m. and out at 3 p.m. and he/she has clocked activity time for 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., only 2 hours of activity time will be calculated (between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m.).
  • Activity transactions must exist.

Follow These Steps

Outline

  1. Recalculate Individual Activities

    Adjusted activity transactions can be recalculated individually in 'Time Activity. Report' (TMS260).

  2. Recalculate a Selection of Activities

    You can perform a calculation run in 'Calculated Time. Generate for Activity' (TMS405) that will recalculate several activities according to the selection you make.
