Employee Information Island

Field Description

Absence Island

Field Description
First Day of Absence This field shows the first day in the range of dates covered by the current absence calendar line.
Time Unit This field shows the time unit of the absence.
Duration In this field, you can enter the duration of the current absence period. If you enter an absence period which overlaps dates for which planning lines have been created in the window Detailed Planning, Maconomy will issue a warning, and the planned number of hours on the days in question will be deleted when the line becomes effective.
Last Day of Absence In this field, you can enter the last day of the current absence period. If you enter a value in the field “Duration,” Maconomy will automatically calculate the last day of absence on the basis of the first day of absence and the duration.

If you enter an absence period which overlaps dates for which planning lines have been created in the window Detailed Planning, Maconomy will issue a warning, and the planned number of hours on the days in question will be deleted when the line becomes effective.

Absence Type In this field, you can select the reason for the absence, for example, vacation or illness. Absence types are created in the window Popup Fields in the Set-Up module.
First Day is Half Day Select this field if the first day of an absence is a half day.
Last Day is Half Day Select this field if the last day of an absence is a half day, or to indicate any single half day.
Hours, First Day Enter the number of hours of absence on the first day of absence. If you enter a value of zero, the first day is a full day of absence. An error message appears to prevent the use of this field if the selected Time Unit is "Days". An error message also appears if you simultaneously edit this field and select the First Day is Half Day field. If you edit this field, the First Day is Half Day field is automatically recalculated.
Hours, Last Day Enter the number of hours of absence on the last day of absence. This field behaves similarly to the Hours, First Day field.
Temporary If you mark this field, the specified absence will be considered as tentatively planned and will therefore not affect the planning, even if absence approval is used, and the line is approved. If a planning line is created in the window Detailed Planning for the employee in question for a date covered by an absence line which is marked as temporary, Maconomy will issue a warning. However, if absence approval is used, a warning is only issued if the absence line in question is approved.
Remarks In this field, you can enter a remark to the absence.
Submitted This field shows whether the absence has been submitted.
Submitted by If the absence has been submitted, this field shows the name of the user who submitted the absence.

Approved This field shows whether the absence has been approved.
Approved by If the absence has been approved, this field shows the name of the user who approved the absence.
Approval Date If the absence has been approved, this field shows the date on which the approval took place.
