Labor tracking hours posting to ERP from Digital Manufacturing

[UtkarshRaj]

Hi Community,

Is there is any possibility to post this Labor tracking hours to ERP from Manage Time Tracking app ?

In Manage Business Settings app we have enabled the settings to post to ERP. Do we need to enable some fields also in ERP for Labor Tracking ?

Thank you,

Kind Regards,
Utkarsh Raj

Hi,

Regarding Time Tracking, see the following assets:

IVJ

• Time Tracking within SAP Digital Manufacturing

Blog Posts

• Clock In/Out and Labor On/Off with SAP Digital Manufacturing
• Indirect Labor Tracking within SAP Digital Manufacturing
• Using Badges for Labor Tracking in SAP Digital Manufacturing
• Time Tracking in Order POD for Process Industries within SAP Digital Manufacturing

But basically, if Standard Value Keys (SVKs) are enabled and properly configured in POD Designer for Labor On POD Plugin (See Labor On) :

And properly selected during POD execution:

Entries for direct labor are reported back to ERP once manually approved in Manage Time Tracking app, or automatically in background if 'Enable Auto-Approval for Time Records' flag is enabled in Manage Business Settings app.

Time Tracking entries are reported back to ERP from SAP Digital Manufacturing via Production Order Activity Confirmation message and can be seen back in ERP as 'Activities' at co14, for example:

Hope it clarifies,
Manoel

Hi Manoel , Thanks for providing the details. I have one question in direct labor time recording. We have two durations in time records, Duration and Effective duration. I know the different between these but when i am trying to approve a record , it post the duration value to ECC system. How can i post Effective Duration value to ECC on approval? Do we have any config for that?

Hi @Nikhil2606 , check https://help.sap.com/docs/sap-digital-manufacturing/execution/time-tracking-7083c0b12de3465d98c0da07... for

Report Duration of Direct Labor to ERP

If set to No (default), the system reports the effective or the adjusted duration to integrated ERP systems. The adjusted duration takes precedence if it has been defined. If set to Yes, the system reports the duration of the direct labor to integrated ERP systems.

Hope it helps, Manoel
