What is ATAAPS?
The Automated Time Attendance and Production System (ATAAPS) provides an automated, single source input for reporting and collecting time and attendance (T&A) and labor data for passing that information to interfacing payroll and accounting systems.

ATAAPS Highlights
Default Labor
ATAAPS is an exception-based system. This means that time and attendance may be generated for each employee based upon defaults that are set for each employee, saving time in labor input as well as in correcting errors.
Certification
Allows an organization to have supervisors sign-off on their employee’s time and attendance.
Labor Validation
At the point of entry, labor is validated in accordance with the Defense Civilian Payroll System (DCPS) rules based on the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) guidelines.
[ACCOUNTING CODES] can be Work Center, Job Order, Task, and/or Op Code.

ATAAPS Schedules
Time and attendance must be entered and concurred upon electronically by second Friday at noon for certification (department discretion).
Certification will be electronically entered beginning the second Thursday of the pay period and completed by the close of business Monday of following pay period.
All users will be locked out of ATAAPS at noon on Tuesday following pay period. At that time data will be extracted from the ATAAPS database at the end of the pay period and electronically uploaded into DCPS.
Default labor will be ran to populate time by Wednesday following pay period.
[TIME CUTOFF] would be the time and the day of the week before payroll is due.

Deadline
This slide may be used to illustrate the activities that take place in ATAAPS during a typical pay period, and what role performs the activity. Change the days/dates to meet the cycle at your site.
Using the above example:
The employee can begin entering their time from Sunday, July 31 through Friday, August 12.
During the July 31-August 12 period, the Timekeeper can review the time entered for the people on their team, or enter time on their behalf.
Starting the second Thursday of the pay period, the certification window opens so the certifier can begin approving and validating timecards for the people on their rosters.
The first Monday of the next pay period is used to accommodate any last minute changes, or to give employee’s a chance to enter their labor for any time worked on the weekend, and to finish final certification of the timecard.
The first Tuesday of the next pay period the file processes that sends the time and attendance to DCPS and the default labor process runs.
After the final pass of payroll, the employee leave balances are updated for ATAAPS. 22 23 24 25 26 27 28
