XALP - EXTRACT LEAVE POLICIES#

Processing Information#

XALP is designed to extract leave policies and their associated data based on the users selected filters. The XALP will extract the following information:

Once the .xml and .data file have been created, it is suggested to review the .xml file to ensure the correct data was extracted.

You will then load the .data file into the receiving database via the LMDATA process described in UBEF section in chapter 5. You will then have to add an entry to the leave schedule to allow the employees access to the newly added leave policy.
