• Key Concepts: 
  Time transfer specifications are used in SAP Personnel Time Management (PT) to define the rules for transferring time data from the time recording system to the payroll system. This includes specifying the time data that should be transferred, the frequency of the transfer, and any additional processing that should be done on the data before it is transferred. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Time transfer specifications are created in the SAP system using transaction code PT_TTS. The user must specify the source and target systems, as well as the type of data to be transferred. The user can also specify additional processing steps such as validation checks or calculations. Once the specification is saved, it can be used to transfer time data from the source system to the target system. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a time transfer specification, it is important to ensure that all of the necessary data is included in the transfer. This includes any additional processing steps that may need to be done on the data before it is transferred. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the frequency of the transfer is set correctly so that time data is transferred in a timely manner.
