Description

How does attendance work?

Resolution

Service calculation options

Select the service calculation method that matches your accrual requirements.

Calculate service as of Accrue Through Date

The plan accrues through the specified accrual date.
Example: If the Accrue Through Date is 2/12/2025, the plan accrues through 2/12/2025.

Calculate service as of End of Last Month

The plan accrues through the last day of the previous month.
Example: If the Accrue Through Date is 2/12/2025, the plan accrues through 1/31/2025.

Calculate service as of End of Current Month

The plan accrues through the last day of the current month.
Example: If the Accrue Through Date is 2/12/2025, the plan accrues through 2/28/2025.

NOTE:

When you use End of Current Month, use a lump sum calculation method with a monthly accrual period. The plan accrues time through month-end based on employee seniority. 

Calculate service as of Previous Plan Year-End
The plan accrues only through the previous plan year-end date.
Example: If you run Accrue Time on 2/12/2025 for an annual plan, the plan accrues through 12/31/2024.

Calculate service as of Current Plan Year-End

The plan accrues through the current plan year-end date.
Example: If you run Accrue Time on 2/12/2025, the plan accrues through 12/31/2025.

NOTE:

For previous or current plan year-end service settings. It's recommended using the lump sum calculation method in the Attendance Plan detail (General tab).
