In today's fast-paced work environments, there’s no place for manual time entry's inefficiency and error-prone nature. Many organizations, even those dealing with complex union agreements, regulations, and labor budgets, still rely on systems that require human intervention rather than modern integration.
These outdated processes lead to increased administrative overhead, higher chances of mistakes, and time-consuming tasks that could be automated.
However, you can achieve high-level efficiency and compliance by integrating MakeShift scheduling with SAP® Time Tracking. This comprehensive combo enhances data accuracy and significantly improves the overall employee experience through seamless integration.
All while transitioning from workforce management to true workforce optimization.

From Workforce Management to Workforce Optimization
The evolution from traditional workforce management to workforce optimization hinges on adopting a comprehensive and integrated approach within the SAP ecosystem. SAP has long been committed to high-level automation through its integrations, showcased in the SAP store.
True to form, the updated SAP Time Tracking system offers transformative automation options.
With intuitive timesheets, AI-powered assistance, simplified approvals, and seamless integration into existing payroll systems, SAP Time Tracking eliminates most of the manual data entry that typically burdens HR teams and managers.
This type of automation is key to improving overall accuracy and compliance. By eliminating manual time entry, businesses ensure their workforce adheres to local and global regulations, reducing errors and avoiding potential penalties.
In addition, roughly 30% of business leaders report reduced labor costs due to process automation.
Automation also fosters an elevated employee experience through more accurate payroll and less frustration caused by mistakes. When employees can trust their work hours are properly tracked and paid, morale naturally increases.
Scheduling Feeds Time: A Modern Approach
Scheduling lies at the heart of accurate time tracking. It’s the foundation that dictates how labor rules, union agreements, and regulations are applied to employee shift planning.
When schedules are manually entered or modified, discrepancies will likely creep into time-tracking systems, leading to errors, compliance risks, and payroll mistakes.
Automating scheduling data transfer to time tracking systems ensures union agreements, overtime calculations, and labor budget restrictions automatically stay consistent.
It also ensures compliance with regulations like SOC 2 TYPE II, GDPR, and HIPAA.
This ultimately enhances both the administrative process and employee satisfaction because workers are paid accurately and on time.
MakeShift + SAP Time Tracking: A Seamless Solution
Integrating MakeShift scheduling with SAP SFSF Time Tracking offers a compatible solution for managing complex scheduling and time-tracking needs.
MakeShift supports SAP’s Time Tracking by seamlessly integrating with SAP SuccessFactors® Employee Central, Employee Central Payroll, SAP S/4HANA® Cloud Public Edition, and Time Tracking through the SAP Business Technology Platform®.
This integration ensures real-time synchronization between scheduling and time management.
Any changes in employee schedules — shift swaps, overtime, or changes in availability — are immediately reflected in SAP Time Tracking. This eliminates the need for manual adjustments, significantly reducing the risk of errors, saving time, and ensuring full compliance with labor regulations.
MakeShift’s advanced rules engine further enhances this process by handling industry-specific scheduling demands. Whether managing multi-location scheduling, accommodating employee availability, or addressing complex union agreements, MakeShift’s system adapts to unique industry needs.
Its ability to automatically apply overtime calculations, enforce labor budget restraints, and adhere to fatigue rules ensures compliance while maintaining operational efficiency.
Automating shift approvals, overtime calculations, and regulatory compliance lightens the administrative load on HR teams and managers while ensuring payroll accuracy, leading to top-notch workforce optimization.
The integration of scheduling and time tracking also helps mitigate employee burnout by enforcing automatic fatigue rules, which warn of excessive overtime.
This seamless solution transforms workforce management from a time-consuming task into a streamlined process that drives productivity and engagement.
Businesses that adopt this modern approach are better positioned to optimize their workforce, reduce labor costs, and boost employee morale, leading to more overall success.
