Effective, February 1, 2001, ENW Contractors are required to utilize the 
SAP/CATS systems to record all time worked.  Each Cost Center Owner is 
responsible for keeping track of their Contractors, hours on a monthly basis, 
as well as ensuring Contractor compliance with this mandate.

At the end of each month, ENW Accounting is providing Contractor reporting to 
Office of the Chair.  However, the accuracy of this report is dependent on 
Contractors entering their time into SAP.

As a result, going forward, a second &non-compliance8 report will be 
submitted to Office of the Chair on a monthly basis, detailing Contractors 
not entering their time and the Contractor supervisor.  Please contact Diane 
Latson (X5-7184) if you believe your contractors are exceptions and should 
not be entering time.

Contractor Time Entry

Contractors are required to enter their time in eHRonline to one of the 
following: (1) project numbers, which are called WBS Elements; (2) cost 
centers, which are associated to a specific department and not a formal 
project.  It is the Supervisor,s responsibility to ensure Contractors are 
provided with the proper project or cost center coding.

Unlike invoice coding, SAP will only accept a Cost Center or WBS element 
number for each time entry line.  This means that you cannot enter a Cost 
Center and a WBS element number on the same line.  SAP will read this 
information from left to right and will only pick up the first entry.  For 
example:

  CostCenter  WBS Element   
  123456  c.9999.99.99.99  

The system will look at this entry and all time will be charged as expense to 
Cost Center 123456. 

Any questions regarding  time entry coding should be directed to ISC HR 
support x5-4727.
