Over 800 Use Kaba Benzing's B-COMM™ Time & Attendance/Labor Reporting Software for SAP® R/3®

 

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.”
