The Balance Code tab on the Leave Type Code form is used to define Leave Type Codes. Leave Type Codes, such as FMLA, Sick, or Vacation, refer to the categories that time off can count against in the application.
You can download Leave Type Codes from your external ERP via IN_AT7. You must enable and schedule this service via the Service Instance form. The leave type codes display once they are downloaded. You can also define your own leave type codes using the Leave Type Code form.
The Leave Policy form defines how and when the leave type codes should be accrued and can be used to cover employee time off. You can configure and maintain an employee's balances on the Employee Leave Type form.
In order for time off events to draw from a time reporter's balances, you must add at least one leave type code to the time off events that are available for the time reporter. The event types that can use leave type codes are ATTENDANCE:HOLIDAY, ATTENDANCE:SICK, ATTENDANCE:TIME_OFF, and ATTENDANCE:VACATION.
To add the leave type codes to these events, go to the Events form, select the event and click the Balance Code tab. See Leave Type (Events) for more configuration information.
Once an event has one or more leave type codes associated with it, balances are drawn when time off requests for the event are approved. If you want balances to be drawn when the event posts via an elapsed transaction on the Web timecard or client terminal, you must check the Balances Enabled box in the time reporter's Attendance Policy.
