  • Key Concepts: 
    Fraction is a feature in SAP Employee Central that allows you to define the number of hours an employee works in a day. It is used to calculate the employee's salary and other benefits. The fraction is expressed as a decimal, such as 0.5 for half a day or 0.75 for three-quarters of a day. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the fraction feature, you must first define the fraction in the system. This can be done by going to the “Employee Central” tab in SAP and selecting “Fraction” from the drop-down menu. You can then enter the fraction as a decimal, such as 0.5 for half a day or 0.75 for three-quarters of a day. Once you have entered the fraction, it will be applied to all employees who are assigned that fraction. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When entering fractions, make sure to use the correct decimal format (e.g., 0.5 for half a day). Also, be sure to double-check your entries before saving them, as any mistakes could lead to incorrect calculations and inaccurate salary payments.
