• next Year ...

    By ISG Support 2 decades ago

    Hello!



    We are evaluating the usagebility of theis databse for our needs - two points come to our mind:


    • At least in AT we have the situation that leaveallowance are taken from startdate to startdate - so also within the year (in my case from Feb to Feb) - is there a way to set an autamted function out of the existing Allowence for creation of the next year? Also - how to handle periods facing two different years?


    • Also it seems like the "Days carried forwrd" has no effect at all. are there any planning in taking these days realyx with you? - Again - in AT we may take 3 years (25 x 3 days) forward in total



      I know this is open is for free - but - with the little knowledge in coding I can provide it's a - difficult task ;)



      Best Regards

      ISC Support,



      Thanks for your interest in Vacation Request!



      To your first point: In the 2.2x releases all vacation processing is based on calendar years while in the 2.4x releases the vacation year and the calendar year can vary. Please check Release 2.4 for your requirements.



      To your second point: The Days Carried Forward reduces the Remaining Days value. The logic is that days carried forward to the next year cannot be used in the current year. If you do not see any affect from increasing the value of Days Carried Forward please try pressing F9.



      I have not been able to determine a best practice for how to create Annual Leave Allocations for "next" year that would be useful for every situation. What I do personally is Copy/Paste the Company Holidays and Allocations and then Edit, Edit, Edit … If you have some suggestions, I would enjoy exploring them.



      HTH,

      Bob
