• Key Concepts: 
  Time quota is a feature of SAP Personnel Time Management (PT) that allows an organization to set limits on the amount of time an employee can work in a given period. It is used to ensure that employees do not exceed their allotted hours and to help manage labor costs. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Time quotas are set up in the SAP system by an administrator. The administrator can define the time period for which the quota applies, as well as the maximum number of hours an employee can work during that period. The system will then track the employee’s hours and alert the administrator if the employee exceeds the quota. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up time quotas, it is important to consider the needs of both the organization and its employees. For example, if an employee is expected to work overtime, it may be beneficial to set a higher quota than normal. On the other hand, if an employee is expected to take regular breaks, it may be beneficial to set a lower quota than normal.
