MIRAMAR, FL. – April 13, 2004 – Kaba Benzing, a
subsidiary of $800 million Kaba Holding AG and worldwide leader in
time and labor management systems , today announced that Wacker
Silicones Corporation (Adrian, Mich.), one of the world's largest
silane and silicone producers, will begin implementing Kaba
Benzing's B-COMM™ time and attendance and labor reporting software
for SAP® solutions to simplify reporting of their employees.
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.
“Like so many companies with disparate systems, Wacker Silicones
needed to remove their legacy time system and replace it with a time
and labor management system that integrates with their SAP
solution,” emphasizes John Edwards, President and General Manager of
Kaba Workforce Solutions . “Since their corporate facility in
Germany already uses our B-COMM™ time and labor management system,
this facility can now leverage the experience of their parent
company. With over 800 such installations throughout the world,
there are many companies in the U.S. with headquarters in Europe and
elsewhere already using our solution. They, like Wacker Silicones,
will find such a migration works to their advantage.”
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.
