How to Export CADO Results to Excel for Time Tracking Optimization

Question:

Hello, while not a maintenance issue, this is related to optimizing time tracking for maintenance purposes. I have utilized CADO to gather all recorded time for a specific employee, yet I am unable to export this information to excel for analysis and reporting. There is a growing concern of inaccurately recorded time leading to underestimated tasks, hindering our ability to effectively plan future time allocation. Is there a better transaction option available for this purpose? Thank you.

If you're having trouble accessing Transaction CADO in SAP, check out IW47 for a list of time confirmations or IW46 for Post Processing error pool. Can you provide the menu path and SAP release for Transaction CADO that I couldn't locate?

Although it was not in the menu path, I managed to access the CADO function by entering it into the command field. I discovered an option to export the results to a spreadsheet, which was extremely helpful. I believe that IW47 may offer a similar feature. Thank you.

To export the data you need, simply select the rows you want and then right-click to choose the "spreadsheet" option on January39. This quick and easy method will save you time and effort.

To export specific data to Excel, simply highlight the desired rows and then right-click to choose the "spreadsheet" option. Although the typical export route may not be available in this case, I have discovered an alternative method that produces the same results, albeit less straightforward. Thank you for the assistance.

Hi there! It appears that you might need a more comprehensive time tracking tool that integrates smoothly with excel for easier reporting. I would recommend looking into TSheets or even Harvest. Both of these options offer robust integrations and excellent reporting capabilities which could help you accurately identify where your maintenance time is being allocated, leading to more effective future planning. Just remember, whichever tool you select should cater to your team's specific needs for the most optimal results.

Hi there! I totally understand your predicament. Funnily enough, I was in a similar situation a few months ago. Instead of trying to work around the limitations of CADO, I started using a tool called TimeCamp. Not only does it have robust time tracking features, it also allows seamless data export to Excel. This way, you can easily analyse your data and make more accurate future plans. Added plus - it has an intuitive interface so transitioning isn't too hard. Might be worth considering. Best of luck!

It sounds like you're facing a common issue with time tracking and analysis. Instead of CADO, have you considered using tools like Toggl or Harvest? Both integrate well with various platforms and offer robust reporting features that could help you not only analyze time data but also export it seamlessly to Excel. Additionally, they provide insights that can help identify patterns in time allocation, which might address your concerns about underestimation and improve future planning.
