MAINTAIN LEAVE ACCRUALS#

Leave Accruals are the summarized records of each leave policy in which an employee is participating. These records may be defined and maintained through the Maintain Leave Accruals (IALA) screen.

Leave Accruals data is maintained on the P2K_AT_LEAVE_ACCRUALS and P2K_AT_LEAVE_ACCRUAL_DETAILS tables.

Show All Years: This button will allow you to see all the evaluations for all previous years.

Leave Type: This field displays the user-defined code to indicate the leave type. This field was previously defined through Leave Policy Types (IAPT).

Year: This field displays the current leave policy year.

Starting: The Accrual Start Date field is the start of the leave policy year. It is either the policy start date for the current year (as of the pay period start date) or the employee’s hire date which ever is later. Start_Date is a mandatory date field the user must fill either manually or with the calendar icon.

Ending: This field holds the end date of the leave policy year.

Leave Policy: This field displays the leave policy for which the accrual record is being kept.

Status: This field indicates whether this accrual record is Active (current year), Closed (previous years) or Frozen (not currently available for processing).

The next section within IALA, contains the individual attendance component totals associated with the leave accrual.

AC Code: This field holds a system-provided code to define the attendance component.

All AC codes begin with the letter “A” followed by a 3 or 4 digit number.

Seq #: The sequence specified is the order in which the Attendance or Payroll Calculation program will process the attendance components.

Description: This field holds a user-defined description of the attendance component entered.

Accrual Type: This field indicates why the attendance components code is being tracked. (i.e. Entitlement, Service, Previous Year, etc.).

Value: This field displays the value of the attendance components regardless of whether it is an amount, date, time, etc.

Basis: This field displays the unit of measure for the accrual value.

Override: If a user needs to override a value, and the attendance component has been set up to allow an override, then this field is where the override should be entered. This leaves an audit trail of what the value was while ensuring that the Attendance routine within UPCALC uses the override value.
