Course Prerequisites:
• EM00 – EM Overview
Why Am I Here?
• This course is designed to provide Deloitte India Project Managers an
understanding of the Time and Expense entry process, Time correction, and
Expense approval process. This course also explains the SAP Portal pertaining
to Time and Expense processes
Target Audience:
• Deloitte India Engagement Managers (Project Managers)
• Time cannot be booked for dates preceding the start date of the Engagement
• A warning is displayed by the system if an Employee enters more hours than the
expected number of hours that he is supposed to work on a day. This value is set
in the HR Master data as per the work schedule rule assigned to the Employee
Yellow triangle alert is a warning message. For example, you entered 10 hrs for a
day which is above 8 hrs (standard hrs). You can proceed to complete the
transaction. Similarly, an alert is displayed when you enter lesser than std. hrs.
Red circular alert indicates an error while executing the transaction. The
transaction will not proceed till you have corrected the data.
Green alert box indicates you have successfully executed the transaction.
• You can enter planned leaves for future dates. When going on a planned leave,
employees should enter leave information and submit their timesheet before
going on leave. This would ensure weekly timesheet(s) submission even while on
a planned leave
• Timesheets submitted with future time entries will also be created in the
APPROVED status
• In addition to the Time entries for Client Engagements, Employees are also
required to fill in Timesheets for any internal work, idle Time, and absence from
work. The Record Working Time link in the SAP Portal has an Att./abs. type field
to specify such information
• Time sheets in SAP do not require an approval. Time entered will be saved in
the Approved status
• If Time entered by an Employee is incorrect, the Manager informs the Employee
via an e-mail. The Employee makes the necessary correction using the Portal
• Delays in corrections would be escalated to partners via e-mail
• The SAP system generates a Missing Timesheet Report. This will be scheduled
to run on a weekly basis to obtain list of Missing Time and Missing Time Sheet
reports
• Based on the report, the Employees whose Timesheets are missing are informed
via an auto-generated e-mail
