Hello all, we want to use the direct labor functionality with the simple scenario which only collects direct labor time for an order and send the ERP employee number. We used the How-To-Guide to customize scenario 3. in ME and have a couple of questions as follows:
- For this scenario we do not want to use clock-in / clock-out and therefore we do not want to customize cost centre, shift plans, factory calendar and so on. Is it possible to do so?
- We customized the scenario in ME and it was possible to collect labor times. But it was not possible to send the collected times to SAP ERP with ODSLaborRollup. What needs to be done to send the times successful to ERP?
- What is necessary to enable the process to send labor times to ERP? Do we need the approval of shift supervisor? After roll-up we didn't saw any entry in the Supervisor time edit and approval view.
- How can we customize a minimum scenario to send labor times to ERP?
- Is it possible to send the employee number within these scenario to ERP?
- Where are the single labor times of an employee are visible in ERP? Is it only at the order as an aggregated number or is it also possible to list every single time stamp with employee number? Where would this be visible in ERP?
Thank you for your help.
Best regards, Manja

Hello Manja,
I'm copying my answers here.
Clock In/Out isn’t required, but why you need to customize all other labor settings is because they are required to approve collected data by supervisor. So that’s why you have to define Cost Center, LCC, assign them to some user shift and so on.
Here is a link to online help
But also you may refer to the step below:
STEPS:
Create Master Data in ERP:
Master Data has to be transferred to ME. If you are using ME Routing then sure that it has reporting steps.
In ME:
DISPLAY_PLANNED_TIME = YES
ALLOW_ELAPSED_TIME_EXCESS = YES (can be set to NO as well, it's up to you)
After that you will see CorrelatedDirectLaborConfirmationRequest record in the Queue Monitor.
I’d say that minimum set of steps is in the previous answer. Collected labor is ready to be sent after you run ODSLaborRollup script and supervisor approves those values in the Supervisor Time Edit and Approval activity.
ODSLaborRollup scrip only summarizes data that allows you to see it in the Supervisor Time Edit and Approval activity. But after that you have to approve this record by supervisor that in turn will trigger transferring of labor information.
To my knowledge it’s not possible. But ERP Personnel Number is reported along with labor data.
I only know that it’s possible to see collected data in the CO14 transaction. So please forward this question to someone who is an ERP expert.
