Summary
How does the Time Off Accrual Report calculate hours available
Resolution
The Time Off Accrual Report calculates the Hours Available differently depending on how the “Base Benefits Availability on” field is set in Payroll Options.
- Select Payroll, Setup, Payroll Options and select Time Off tab
- If 'Base Time Off Availability on" field it is set to L for Limit, the Available Hours on the Benefit Accrual Report are calculated by the flowing formula:
(Annual Limit + Carry Over Hours) - Hours Used. The Available Hours are multiplied by the employee's Pay Rate to calculate the Accrual Balance. When basing hours available on annual limits, YTD Accrual Hours are ignored.
- If “Base Time Off Availability on” field is set to A for Accrual, the Available Hours are calculated by the following formula:
(Carry Over Hours + Hours Accrued) - Hours Used. The Available Hours are then multiplied by the employee's Pay Rate to get the Accrual Balance.
