!!Overview
The purpose of this white paper is to demonstrate to users how to configure the system to show leave balances in a different order.  Also, via security setup, suppress the display of selected leave plans from showing in the Self Service forms. 

!!Sorting Leave Lines in a Table
Leave lines can now be sorted in a table provided the leave line record includes the ALP.SEQ_NUM user field column (NUMBER domain) as the first column of the record.  When this sequence is added, it will allow the user to determine the order in which the leave lines will be displayed on the View Leave Balances form (VALB).

!Setup
The sequence number for sorting of each Leave Line will be setup on each Leave Policy in the IALP screen.   
 

The sequence number field needs to be added to the 

!Sort display on VALB in eP
In VALB, this sequence number user field has been added to the first column of this form and it will now be used to sort the leave records displayed.  
 

!Sort display on MY LEAVE BALANCES in Self Service
In ‘My Leave Balances’, this sequence number user field has been added to the first column of this form and it will now be used to sort the leave records displayed. 
Note that if there is no Sequence Number (defined on the IALP for the Leave Type), then those Leaves will display 1st in the list 
 

!!Suppressing Display of Leave Lines
Leave lines can now be suppressed from being displayed to the users in Self Service on the “My Leave Balances” form.  This is done based on User or Role security setup.  
!Setup
The displaying of leave lines is controlled via the IMSV Screen.  To restrict access to a Leave Line, you must set up security on the IMSV form.  The following needs to be setup:
*Set the User or Role to restrict access
*Set the ‘Security Right’  to ‘LEAVE TYPE’
*Set the ‘Look Up Value’ to the Leave Policy Type intended to have the restriction on
*Set the ‘Rule’ to ‘Restricted From’ 

Example of IMSV setup to restrict 3 Leave Types from the Role of “EP_AT_ACCESS”  
 
!Example of Leave Line display suppression

In ‘My Leave Balances’ form, the 3 leave types defined above in the IMSV will be removed from the view on this form.  As you can see there is a before and after shot of the form, showing the 3 leave plans before the IMSV setup and after the IMSV setup.  
‘My Leave Balances’ before IMSV setup  - you can see that the Banked OT, Compensatory Time and Floating Holiday are displayed on the form. 
 

‘My Leave Balances’ after IMSV setup - you can see that the Banked OT, Compensatory Time and Floating Holiday are now NOT displayed on the form (due to the restriction setup on IMSV).
