Expired leave amounts are calculated and displayed, for leave types with set leave expiration methods based on opening balances and expiry dates/periods. Leave types with expiry dates/periods allow companies to identify and set up leave types and balances that become invalid after a set time.  The value in the Expired Amount field is the number of days that employees will lose at expiration in this “use it or lose it” leave scenario.

The system will calculate and display the expired amount and (new) starting balance:

  • Expired Amount      = Start Balance  Leave Taken + Leave Booked

                                      6 = 10 - (2 + 2)

  • Start Balance (new) = Start Balance (old)  Expired Amount

                                        4 = 10 - 6

  • Restore Expired:  Click this button to restore the Expired Amount i.e. 6 in the example above.  The new value in the Start Balance field will then be 10 (Expired Amount + Start Balance (old)) (6+4 = 10).
  • Update Balance:  Click this button to use the current record values as the starting balance.
