Use

In this activity, you create the color design for the calendar views and the team view. You can assign different colors to different time data IDs. This gives users a better overview of the relevance or frequency of time data, for example.

You are recommended to use the color design sparingly. Too many colors can lead to confusion. The best type of color design is one that supports the meaning of the time data according to its significance in a business context (planned time, attendances, absences, and so on.) You do not have to assign a color for every item of time data. Less important time data can be output with the standard color.

The colors you determine in this activity are not definitive; they can just be standard settings for your company. The appearance of the colors can vary greatly according to the individual users' color settings.

Requirements

You have already created the time data IDs for which you want to define colors in the Specify Definition Sets and IDs activity.

Standard settings

  • You can display the range of available colors directly on your screen by running the SHOWCOLO report.
  • If you create new time data IDs in Customizing at a later stage, they are automatically copied over to the table and filled with the initial value 0. If you delete time data IDs, the system removes them from the table.

Activities

  1. Select the definition area to which you want to assign colors for time data IDs.
  2. Choose New Entries.
  3. Enter the IDs to which you want to assign colors.
  4. Enter the relevant color for each time data ID. You can choose from colors 0-7. (0-Background, 1 # Gray-blue, 2 # Light gray, 3 # Yellow, 4 # Blue-green, 5 # Green, 6 # Red, 7 # Purple).
  5. Specify whether you want to display the color intensively. If you do, enter an X in the INTENSIFIED field.
  6. Specify whether you also want the fonts to be displayed in color. If you do, enter an X in the INVERSE field. You are recommended to use this particular layout element in exceptional cases only.
  7. Save your entries.
