Question:

How can Time-Off be tracked when it isn’t earned?

Answer:

If you wish to track the number of hours/days employees are out for Unexcused Absences, you have two options:

Option One: Create a Time-Off Bank for Time-Off that isn’t earned. Call it Unexcused Absence and assign a None plan to it. Use an Absence Reason Code on the calendar screen to document any absences of this type. The Absence Reason Code will debit the balance of this bank. Because the balance starts out at zero, the balance in the bank will go negative on the calendar screen.

The program comes with a None plan already created. If you don’t have such a plan it is because someone in your organization changed that plan to something else. If this happened, recreate it. For simple instructions, visit this ARTICLE.

Option Two: Don’t bother creating a Time-Off Bank called Unexcused Absence in the first place. Do create an Absence Reason Code for it though and then you can use the Absence Detail Report to see how many hours/days of unexcused absences employees have taken for a specified date range rather than tracking a visible running negative balance on the calendar screen. This way, this type of Time-Off will not appear on the Employee Balance Report, the Transaction Detail Report, or the Year in Review Report or on the Calendar screen.

Question:

Is it possible to eliminate an unwanted Time-Off Bank?

Answer:

If you no longer wish to [use] a particular Time-Off Bank, you don’t have to delete it. You can simply assign the None plan to it so that Time-Off will no longer accrue to it. By keeping it though, it will continue to appear on the Employee Balance Report, the Transaction Detail Report and the Year in Review Report as well as under the calendar on the calendar screen.
