In SAP, part-time work is managed through the Personnel Time Management (PT) component. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The PT component allows employers to define part-time work schedules and manage the associated payroll and personnel data. It also allows employers to track employee attendance and absences, as well as manage overtime and shift differentials.
