What This Does

  • This allows the user to add leave earned to a group of employees for a specific Leave ID in mass as opposed to adding each individually
  • Allows the user to view the list prior to saving the transactions and enables the user to make edits if necessary


Best Practices

  • It's recommended to use Add Leave Earned in Mass for an easier and more efficient way of adding leave earned
  • When adding Leave Earned at the start of a Fiscal Year, it is recommended that all transactions from the previous Fiscal Year have been processed, balances moved and Leave Liability reports and/or processes be run prior to performing the the Add Leave Earned process
  • Run the Leave Job Summary report to confirm processed and unprocessed amounts by going to HR → Leave Management → Reports → Leave Job Summary


Add Leave Earned in Mass

  • Modules → HR → Leave Management → Earned Tab → Add Leave Earned in Mass
  • To be selected, employees must have both an active leave job master and leave master
  • The payroll job must be active and leave allowed must be true
  • Current Employee must be true in Personnel Demographics
  • The Leave Description selected must be active
  • Earned Amounts come from the Leave Description ID Earned Rate on the Leave Earned Tab
  • This process is usually done at the beginning of the Leave year, but can be run at any frequency

  • Important: Use ranging to add earned amounts to only the employees that should receive it; however, if all employees with the selected Leave ID should get their earned amount, there is not any need to range.
  • Recommended range options are Personnel ID, Pay Group, and Personnel Class
  • Choose a range option that will include the employees that should receive the earned amount
  • Select when completed, and an exception report will produce; if some employee's should get a different amount than the default, select their record and change the Leave Earned amount
  • If the employee's listed are not correct, can cancel and abort
  • If only a few employees on the list should not get the Leave Earned amount, their record can be selected and skipped by turning on the Skip this Record flag
  • Once the list is reviewed and correct, select Continue and a text browser screen will appear with a message
  • Cancel the text browser and set flags to proceed, or, can quit and all transactions will cancel
  • After setting flags on the text message, the Leave Earned Audit Trail will appear
  • Review, then if correct set flags to verify the transactions; if you do not set flags, the transactions have still been created, but exist in an unverified status
  • If transactions are not verified, they can be edited and/or deleted
  • To verify, select the Earned Audit Trail from the Earned tab
