About the Role
DXC Technology seeks a Senior Consultant / Lead Consultant specialising in SAP S/4HANA Cross-Application Time Sheet (CATS) to lead implementation and optimisation of enterprise-wide time recording solutions. CATS is a cross-functional SAP capability letting employees record working time against HR orders, Project System (PS) work breakdown structures, Plant Maintenance (PM) orders, Controlling (CO) cost objects, and Materials Management (MM) activities from a single unified time sheet.
You will design, configure, and deploy CATS solutions in S/4HANA environments, ensuring accurate time data capture for HR payroll and financial/project cost allocation. Working with HR, Finance, Project Management, and Operations stakeholders, you will deliver end-to-end CATS solutions aligned with client requirements, driving solution design through configuration, testing, and go-live support.
