Edit Employee Leave Accruals

What can I do in this screen?

Use this screen to edit leave accruals for specific employees.  This screen is updated after you execute the Compute Leave Accruals program (People\Transactions\Leave).

If you discover an error after computing or posting leave, you can add records or make changes and corrections in this application.

Generally, this screen serves as a temporary holding place for record data that has not been posted. You should, therefore, edit leave records here before you post them.  After you post leave, this record information is no longer available in this screen; however, you can create new records in this screen to correct records that have been posted.

For example, the Post Leave program (People\Process\Post) finalizes leave records.  If you realize an error was made after you have posted leave records, you can add a new record in the Edit Employee Leave Accruals screen, making any necessary corrections or adjustments to this new record. If you choose not to create a new record, you can wait until after you compute leave accruals in the next leave period before you take corrective action. Since the Compute Leave Accruals process updates the Edit Employee Leave Accruals screen, a new record will be generated in the Edit Employee Leave Accruals application after you compute leave. You can make necessary corrections or adjustments to this new record.

If you add new records, you must ensure leave accruals (created using the Compute Leave Accruals program) have been posted in the open leave period.

When should I use this screen?

Use this screen to edit leave accruals after you execute the Compute Leave Accruals process and before you post records to the general ledger.

If unposted leave accrual records remain in this screen, you cannot close the leave period.
