Event Policy

The Event Policy form has three tabs: Comments and Reason Code, Excused Absences, and Event Setting.

The Comments and Reason Code tab is used to configure the Comments and Reason Codes feature.

The Excused Absences tab is used to define the absence events that are considered excused absences when viewed on the Time Card Review form.

The Event Setting tab is used to define event restrictions that determine whether the user can add, modify, or delete certain events in the timecard.

An Event Policy can be assigned to a Person, Person Group (POLICY_GROUP or FACILITY), or a System Setting.

An Event Policy can also be assigned as an Event Setting Manager Policy. The Event Setting Manager Policy is used to define the event restrictions that apply to a manager posting or modifying hours on employee timecards on the Supervisor Review form. When an Event Policy is assigned as an Event Setting Manager Policy, the settings defined on the Comments and Reason Code tab and the Excused Absences tab are ignored. The settings on these tabs do not apply when the policy is assigned as an Event Setting Manager Policy.
