Session: tihra0100m000
Application: This session defines parameters for Hours Accounting Module.
Field Data:
1. Hours Accounting Type
Hours accounting can occur by week, day, employee, or order.
Week / Employee: The hours account for an employee can be entered for a whole week.
The system assumes that the hours transactions are entered in chronological order. This
means that the system automatically determines the start day and start time of an hour
transaction based on the working time table, after which you only enter the end day and
end time for the hour transaction.
Week / Order: The hours account for an employee can be entered for a whole week. The
system assumes that the hours transactions are entered by order, which means that they
are not arranged chronologically. The system asks for a start day and start time, as well as
an end day and end time for the hours transactions.
Day / Employee: The hours account for an employee can be entered per day. The system
assumes that the hours transaction are entered chronologically. This means that it
automatically determines the start time of an hours transaction based on the working time
table, after which only the end time for the hours transaction must be entered.
Day / Order: The hours account for an employee can be entered per day. The system
assumes that the hours transactions are entered per order, which means that they are not
arranged chronologically. As a result, the system asks for a start time and end time for the
hours transactions.
When entering hours accounts, you can always switch from "weekly hours accounting" to
"daily hours accounting" and vice versa.

2. Clock Time for Hours Accounting
The clock time of the hours accounting in minutes or periods.
Minutes The system uses the normal time notation: minutes and hours. For example, half
past eight is 08:30.
Periods If a time recorder is used in your company, its notation may differ from the
normal notation in hours and minutes. For example, half past eight is 08:50. Given such a
case, you must choose an hours accounting based on periods.
If you choose periods, use the next parameter to indicate how many minutes make up a
period.
3. Period Length in Minutes
The period length in minutes if the clock time is shown in periods. For the above-
mentioned example, the period length is 0.6 minutes.
4.  Direct Time Recording
Yes With direct hours accounting, you can use the session "Enter Hours Accounting
(tihra1101m000)" as a DTR (direct time recording) station. When an operation is
reported completed, the hours spent are loaded immediately. With a new transaction, a
previous active hours transaction is automatically closed. The result is that the planning is
always up to date. This method requires additional capacity (man time) for entering hours
and printing order documents as part of the issue of orders. The default value for the start
time of the operation entered in the hours accounting is the value of the system time.
Hours transactions that are entered automatically get the status "1-Active".
No The hours spent are processed by the system based on the time records for the
employees.
5. Actual Operation Rates
 For the actual operation rates, you can choose from the following:
Estimated Rates: The rates used by the system for actual costing are equal to the rates
used for standard costing. This prevents price variances in production.
Man and Machine Rates: The rates used by the system for actual costing are equal to
the actual man and/or machine rates as defined in the sessions "Maintain Employees
(tccom0101m000)" and "Maintain Machines (tirou0102m000)".
6. Capacity Flows
The system automatically records capacity flows between work centers. Capacity flows
arise when operations are carried out at another work center than where they were
planned according to the product's routing (for example, in the case of unexpected
subcontracting). Capacity flows also arise when employees or machines are assigned to
other work centers. There are two options to record capacity flows:
Main Work Centers The system only records capacity flows between the main work
centers of your company.
Sub Work Centers The system records capacity flows between main work centers and
between sub-work centers.
7. Hourly Labor Type for Backflushing
The hourly labor type that will be used by the system if the hours are accounted by means
of backflushing.
8. Description
The description of the hourly labor type.
9. Cover Overhead Costs in Employee Work Center
This field is used to specify the financial company to which overhead costs are posted.
This is relevant if the work center of the employee whose hours are to be posted belongs
to a company that differs from the company where the hours are posted.
Yes The overhead cost cover is posted to the financial company of the employee's work
center.
No The overhead cost cover is posted to the same financial company as where the hours
are posted.
