Hi everyone,

I have a question regarding the absence calendar. I started to set manually the days that our employees are entitled to have today but some of them already had some days off at the beginning of this month. So for example, if I took days off from the 3rd to the 6th of January, it will not deduct the days from the total days that I am allowed to take in 2022. It says that days taken in 2022 will start to count from today’s date (11th of Jan). Does anyone know how to change that?

 

Please let me know. I would really appreciate it!

 

Best,

Kejsi

Hi @Kejsi Kondo,

I am not sure, if it is on purpuse that you wanted to set the entitlement as manual adjustment. We only recommend this if it is necessary to correct something in the past.

On the first impression it seems like you have done a manual adjustment on the 11th Jan, which sets the balance to the selected value without considering what has happened before. Please delete the manual adjustments and check whether the balance is correct already.

To grant an entitlement, it usually works through an accrual policy:

  1. The accrual policy needs to be set up in the absence type. In Germany it is granted at the beginning of the year, in other countries this might differ.
    (Please also check that the absence type has some sort of carry over limitation.)
  2. The accrual needs to be assigned to the employees, the fastest way to do this is via the employee list, like this.
  3. For you to know the first accrual is always assigned since the hire date. If you are starting new or also want to consider carry over, you can bulk import the absence balance from 31st Dec 2021. Then it will be recognised as carry over and the balance is correct. If you are starting from scratch you can import 0 days.
    (Please use the import template from the helpcenter article and keep in mind that an import can’t be undone, so the values need to be correct.)
  4. Now check a profile: The already taken holidays now needs to be considered as well. If not please update the accrual policy. 

I hope my answer is helping you?

Please let me know in case I can further support. 

Best Regards,
Lena

PS: Currently we are in the German Community, but we also have an international one where the main language is English, in case you also want to go through some questions and ideas. :) 


Hi @Kejsi Kondo,

I hope that you are fine and that it all worked out with the correct entitlement?

If would be great, if you could give me a short update, whether you wish to have further support? Otherwise we can mark the above answer as “Beste Antwort”. :) 

Best Regards,
