With PSA, an unlimited number of leave types can be defined to efficiently track the paid time off of an organization’s employees. The term paid time off refers to the hours a resource is paid for non-work related time, including vacation, bereavement leave, jury duty and personal leave. Employees can take other types of days off that relate to personal time, such as sick leave, personal time, maternity leave or banked overtime.
Unlike holidays, Leave Times are not defined as sets where specific days are allocated in advance as non-working days nor is time automatically entered through the batch service. Instead, employees deduct the Leave Time from the hours they have accumulated or have been allotted by an organization.
An organization can also create maximum and minimum thresholds to limit users’ usage and accrual of the Leave Times or set up automatic accruals for each Leave Time that are automatically added to the users’ available time.
The specific rules for defining how the hours for Leave Time are accumulated or assigned are created when a Leave Time is either being created or edited. Therefore, different rules can be applied for the different Leave Times. There are also two types of rules for defining the Leave Times: processing and usage.
