Use the Period Summary tab to see booked and available absence time to help gauge when is the best time for planned absences.
Period Summary Fields
This tab shows your absence allowance, as well as used, carried forward, and remaining days for the selected vacation period for each relevant absence type.
| Field | Description |
|---|
| Allowance
|
This field shows the time that has been granted for absence bookings for the whole period, such as 25 days in a year.
This number does not change as you book absences. It only changes if your manager changes your allowance.
|
| Carried Forward
|
This field shows time that is carried forward from another absence period for each absence type, such as illness, leave, vacation, and time in lieu.
|
| Available
|
This field shows how many days you have left for booking in this vacation period.
It uses this formula: Available = Allowance + Carried Forward (to this period) - Booked - Carried Forward To Following Period.
Note: There is no field to show the last term.
For example, if you started the period with 25 days of allowance, but then booked 5 days of vacation, this number shows 20.
|
| Booked
|
This field shows time that is planned, approved, and scheduled for each absence type: illness, leave, vacation, and time in lieu.
