Define Absence Limits
Explanation
This activity is used to allocate yearly absence limits for an employee for a selected period.
Note: If required to carry forward the unused absence limits from the previous year, enter the absence
type which is specified as the outstanding absence type for the relevant absence type in the Limit Definition
Details page. The remaining absence limits from the previous year will be allocated as the absence
limit.
Prerequisites
In order to perform this activity
- Absence groups and absence types are required to be defined in the Absence Group page. The
absence group is required to have the Show Limits option enabled and a calendar type should also be linked
to the absence group using Absence Limit Definition page.
- Group definitions are required to be entered for the absence type in the Absence
Limit Definition page. If it should be possible to manually enter the limit, the
Manual Limit option is required to be selected. If the absence limit should be
automatically calculated, the seniority requirement for automatic limit allocation should be specified in the
Absence Limit Definition Details page (accessible from the Absence Limit
Definition page/ Limit Definition section).
- Absence types which should be used as dependent absences are required to be registered in the
Absence Limit Definition page /Dependent Limit Definition section.
