With SAP-certified Interface, B-COMM™ Software for
the SAP R/3 Solution Delivers Solution to Shop Floor
MIRAMAR, FL. – August 20,
2003 – Kaba Benzing, a subsidiary of $690 million Kaba
Holding AG and worldwide leader in time and labor management
systems, today announced that more than 800 users of SAPÒ solutions
around the world are delivering additional functionality to their
shop floors with B-COMM™ time and attendance and labor reporting
software for the SAP R/3Ò software 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,” reports John C. Edwards, Kaba-Benzing President &
General Manager. “Many SAP customer companies in North America that
are subsidiaries or divisions of international organizations may not
be aware that we are already performing this task for their parent
and sister organizations in other parts of the world. Thus, the
special needs they might have are probably already addressed
elsewhere. We could have them up and running very quickly and
affordably.”
B-COMM™ time and attendance/labor reporting
software for the SAP R/3 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.
The core of the B-COMM™ software is
SAP-certified interface software 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.
“We made the switch to the SAP time management
capabilities of mySAP HR and needed to have our time clocks and time
data collection interface with the SAP solution,” emphasizes Wayne
Pressley, BMW (Spartanburg, S.C.) section manager. “We wanted to
ease implementation by selecting an SAP partner with a certified
interface. B-COMM™ software for the SAP R/3 solution offers great
functionality off the shelf and the Kaba Workforce Solutions team
was able to quickly create a custom application to support our
unique needs. We were live in just 60 days after our first
meeting.”
