LEAVE BALANCE DISPLAY CONFIGURATION#

You may configure the system to show leave balances in a different order, in addition, 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 you to determine the order in which the leave lines will be displayed on the View Leave Balances (VALB)screen.

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 VALB form layout on IMFD.

Sort Display on VALB#

In VALB, the sequence number user field has been added to the first column of the form and it will now be used to sort the leave records displayed.

Sort Display for Leave Balances in Self Service#

Leave Balances in Self Service are displayed on WEALB for employees, WAALB, WAALP AND WAALV for administrators and WMALB and WMALPfor managers.


For Leave Balances, the sequence number user field has been added to the first column of the form and it will now be used to sort the leave records displayed.

Note Any leave lines without a sequence number (defined on the IALP for the Leave Type) will be displayed first on the list.

Suppressing Display of Leave Lines#

Leave lines can now be suppressed from being displayed to the users in Self Service on the “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 screen. The following needs to be setup:
  • Select the user or role you wish to restrict access from.
  • Set the security right to ‘Leave Type’.
  • Set the ‘Look Up Value’ to the Leave Policy type you intend to have the restriction on put on.
  • Set the rule to ‘Restricted From’.
