1. Return Date Calculation by Pay Type

A new feature, Return Date Calculation By Pay Type, was added.  This feature allows for different leave return dates calculation methods to be set for salaried and non-salaried employees for any given leave type.  

If, however, an employee is changing from salaried to non-salaried, or vice-versa, then the Return Date Parameters (Benefits>>Leave>>Leave Setup>>Return Date Parameters) should be used to define the return date calculation method for the specific employee and any other employee exceptions.

Step 1 - Enable Feature

System Configurations>> Feature Management>> Return Date Calculation by Pay Type

Step 2 - Setup Leave Type

Set up the leave type (or edit an existing leave type).  Define the return date parameters by completing the following fields:

  1. Calculate Return Date Using (Salaried employees).
  2. Calculate Return Date Using (Non-Salaried).

The system will check to determine:

  1. If the employee is salaried or non-salaried via Personnel>>Employees>>[Search for Employee]>>Payroll Related.
  2. The values in the above-named fields to accurately calculate the return date for the specific leave type.

Personnel>> Employees>> [Search for Employee]>> Payroll Related

Benefits>> Leave>> Leave Setup>> Leave Types>> Leave Types

2. Leave Transactions

The system automatically calculates the return dates based on the leave type rules on import of leave transaction records.  Audit functionality was also added.

System Configurations>> Company Imports>> Leave Transactions

3. Leave Requests

Workflow leave requests are now visible to employees’ direct supervisors although they do not have Company or Pay Group access. The Supervisor logon screen is shown below.

Note:  the supervisor must be an approver in the leave workflow.

  1. The two (2) holidays flagged and,
  2. The employee’s shift is Monday to Sunday (inclusive of weekends).

Step 5 - Recalculate Employee Leave Balances

This new feature allows users to Hide Self Service Leave Entitlements by Company, Leave Type and Year so that the records will not be displayed on the View Detailed Leave History screen (HOME>>My Benefits>>My Leave>>Entitlements>>[select View Detailed Leave History].  

For the specific year selected, all leave entitlements for the company and leave type will be hidden up to and including that leave year.
