MIRAMAR, FL. January 27,
2004-Kaba Benzing, a subsidiary of $800 million Kaba
Holding AG and worldwide leader in time and labor management systems
, today announced that Santa Barbara, Calif.-based Mission Linen
Supply will begin implementing Kaba Benzing's B-COMM™ time and
attendance and labor reporting software for SAP® solutions to
simplify reporting of their approximately 3,000 employees. To input
data, approximately 55 Kaba Benzing B-Net 9320 data collection
terminals will be spaced throughout Mission Linen
facilities.
B-COMM™ time and attendance/labor reporting
software for the SAP R/3® software solution links Kaba Benzing
terminals and other hardware data devices to SAP R/3 Release 3.1 to
4.7 (SAP R/3 Enterprise). It automates and validates the collection
of employee and labor data for entry into the mySAP™ Human Resources
(mySAP HR) solution, the time management application, and other SAP
applications.
“We chose B-COMM™ for its seamless integration
with the SAP R/3 solution, which we have been using for the past
three years,” reports David Pattison, Infrastructure Manager for
Mission Linen Supply. “Kaba Benzing was also very competitive in its
pricing.”
The core of the B-COMM™ software is an SAP-certified
interface that helps ensure faultless data exchange between the
individual SAP applications and the data collection devices. This
interface is kept current with all new SAP technical developments.
All data maintenance takes place in the SAP solution.
“Over
800 SAP customers now use B-COMM™ software for the SAP R/3 solution
to collect and input time and labor data into their time management
application,” emphasizes John Edwards, president and general manager
of Kaba Workforce Solutions. “We look forward to having Mission
Linen Supply up and running quickly.”
