Link Absence Type to Absence Wage Codes
Explanation
This activity is used to link absence types to absence wage codes. When
absence is registered by an employee directly using the absence wage code,
e.g. from Time Clock terminal, the corresponding records will
be created in the Absence window using the absence type linked to
the absence wage code.

Procedure
- Open the Absence Configuration/TA Association tab and
create a new record.
- Enter wage class and wage code in the respective fields by selecting
values from the list. The absence type is now linked to the wage code
specified.
- In Time and Attendance module, it is only required to log how many hours
were spent on an activity, e.g., 5 hours logged on Project Activity 1, 2
hours for Project Activity 2 and 1 hour for Administration. However, when
you log an absence using Time and Attendance, the Absence module requires
precise information on when the absence started/ended. This information is
usually given in Time From and Time To fields, that are not
present in Time and Attendance. To solve that, use the Initiate
Transaction at Day Start check box.
- If selected, when absence is logged using Time and Attendance
module, it will be logged at the beginning of the working day.
- If cleared, when absence is logged using Time and Attendance,
it will be logged at the end of the working day.
- In the Merge Method field, select how an absence should merge
with adjacent absences.
Following values are available:
- With Previous - the absence will merge with a preceding
absence,
- With Next - the absence will merge with a subsequent absence,
- With Previous and Next - the absence will merge with both
preceding and subsequent absences,
- Do Not Merge - the absence will not merge with any absences
and will be logged as a separate record.
- In the Registration Mode field, select how absences should be
transferred to Time and Attendance.
- This flag controls edit/delete actions of wage hours connected to
authorized absence requests.
- Adjustable Yes – End user is able to edit/delete
absence hours at time registration/time card after absence request is
authorized
- Adjustable No- End user is not allowed to
edit/delete reported absence hours after absence request is authorized.
- Repeat the step above in order to link the absence type with more wage codes.
- Save the information.
