Period Entitlement Method#
This component indicates how the period entitlement derived. This component is required to derive periodic accruals (e.g. annual, monthly, pay period, etc.).
Choose the rule that is used as the ‘Period Entitlement Method’ rule.
| Rule | Description | Logic | Assoc. | Go to. |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 00 | Derive from user Calc Only | Derives the entitlement for this period from the <UserCalc> specified. The UserCalc must be of the type ‘Function’, with a return value of the type ‘Numeric’. Use the RET operator to return the Numeric value. The value is interpreted by the component as a user supplied amount of entitlement to be given. | A290 | |
| 01 | Leave Accrual Entitlement (Prorated by FTE Rule) | Allows users to enter an overridden amount as the yearly entitlement on the Leave Accrual record for individual employees (or through the Leave Lines, or transaction entry). Please note that the Rule assumes all employees’ entitlements will be overridden. The override is entered on either this Component (A260) or on the Leave Lines using this component. Please note that the Rule assumes all employees’ entitlements will be overridden. The override is entered on either this Component (A260) or on the Leave Lines using this component. | A350 | A270 |
| 02* | Service Level Entitlement (Prorated by FTE Rule) | Entitlement will be calculated based on Service Levels. May use “A270 – FTE Rule” to prorate the entitlement per year override on the Accrual record. | A270 | |
| 03 | Leave Accrual Entitlement (Prorated by Time Worked Rule) | Allows users to enter an overridden amount as the yearly entitlement on the Leave Accrual record for individual employees (or through the Leave Lines, or transaction entry). Please note that the Rule assumes all employees’ entitlements will be overridden. The override is entered on this Component (A260), or on the Leave Lines using this component. Uses the “A280 – Time Worked Rule” to prorate the entitlement per year override on the accrual record. | A350 | A280 |
| 04 | Service Level Entitlement (Prorated by Time Worked Rule) | Entitlement will be calculated based on Service Levels. Uses the “A280 – Time Worked Rule” to prorate the entitlement calculated based on the employees’ Service Level. | A280 | |
| 05 | Percentage of Time Worked | Uses the element specified for Time Worked Component (A250) x the percentage based on Service Level. | A250 | A290 |
There are no rules defined above for policies whose entitlement is based on a percentage of earnings. These components are defined in the “Components to Calculate Earnings and Percentages” topic.
If the policy is based on both time and percentage of earnings (typically whichever is the higher amount), define the time entitlement in this Component (A260), and the percent of earnings entitlement in ‘Components to Calculate Earnings and Percentages’ (A400-A699).
