Fast Formula – Absence

Fast Formula – Absence
In our previous sections, we went over the basics of Fast Formula and how Compensation uses the Formula in their products.
In this session, we will cover the Fast Formula usages in Absences.
Since we covered the Types, Input Values, Context and how to write a Fast Formula in detail in our previous sections, we will not get into that again in these sections.
If you have any questions or doubts, please post us a message.

Absence Formula Types:
Formula Type Name
Description
Usage
Global Absence Accrual
This formula type can be used to define the bands that identify how much paid time eligible workers accrue over the course of an accrual period. The criteria may be years of service, grades, hours worked etc. However, use this formula only if using the accrual matrix option and its corresponding formulas does not meet the requirement.
Manage Absence Plans -> In the Plan Type field, select Accrual -> Accruals tab Accrual Attributes section, select Formula
Global Absence Accrual Event
The Global Absence Accrual Event fast formula can be used to capture information about events that occur during a calendar year which would cause a change in the accrual band that the worker belongs to. This formula can capture such dates and return to the accrual matrix formula which would automatically fetch the respective band values as of each of the dates fed into the accrual matrix formula
You cannot attach this formula to the plan definition at any point. When you create the formula, the formula name needs to be the same as the absence plan name. This automatically links the formula to the plan.
Global Absence Accrual Matrix
The Global Absence Accrual Matrix fast formula can be used in conjunction with the accrual matrix to implement requirements such as band change pro-ration, FTE pro-ration etc.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accrual -> Accrual Matrix section ->  the defined formula in the Accrual Formula column
Global Absence Band Entitlement
The Global Absence Band Entitlement fast formula can be used to define the bands of entitlement duration and percentage of payment that is applicable against a qualification plan entitlement.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Qualification ->, Qualification Band Matrix table -> Qualification Details  ->  Entitlement Formula
Global Absence Carryover
The Global Absence Carryover fast formula can be used in cases where a single carryover rule does not apply to the entire population that belongs to the accrual plan.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accural -> in Accural Tab, Plan Limits  -> Carryover Rule
Global Absence Carryover Proration
The Global Absence Carryover Proration fast formula can be used in cases where a pro-ration factor (or a multiplication factor) needs to be applied onto the maximum carryover limit.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accural -> in Accural Tab, Plan Limits  -> Carryover Proration Formula
Global Absence Ceiling
The Global Absence Ceiling fast formula can be used in cases where a single ceilingr rule does not apply to the entire population that belongs to the accrual plan.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accural -> in Accural Tab, Plan Limits  -> Ceiling Formula
Global Absence Ceiling Proration
The Global Absence Ceiling Proration fast formula can be used in cases where a pro-ration factor (or a multiplication factor) needs to be applied onto the maximum ceiling limit.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accural -> in Accural Tab, Plan Limits  -> Ceiling Proration Formula
Global Absence Entry Validation
The Global Absence Entry Validation fast formula can be used in cases where a custom data validation or business rule validation needs to be performed when an absence entry is being made
Manage Absence type -> Absence Type page Type Attributes tab, General Attributes section -> the Validation Formula
Global Absence Partial Period Accrual Rate
The Global Absence Partial Period Accrual Rate fast formula is where any logic required for pro-ration of accrual balance during enrollment year and un-enrollment year needs to be entered.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accural -> in Accural Tab, Plan Limits  -> Partial Accrual Period Formula
Global Absence Plan Duration
The Global Absence Plan Duration fast formula can be used to over-ride the default duration calculation logic for daily accrual duration entries against accrual plans. For example, if the accrual deduction to be considered for an absence entry in an accrual plan in an organization depends on the location of the worker, then this formula can be leveraged to specify this dynamic calculation logic. This formula will be invoked once for each day of absence.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accural -> in Accural Tab, Plan Limits  -> Conversion Formula
Global Absence Plan Enrollment End
The Global Absence Plan Enrollment End fast formula can be used to over-ride the default enrollment end date rule for the absence plan when workers are being terminated from the organization or when the Update Accrual Plan Enrollments batch job is being run.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accural -> in Accural Tab, Plan Limits  -> End Date Formula
Global Absence Plan Enrollment Start
The Global Absence Plan Enrollment Start fast formula can be used to over-ride the default enrollment start date rule for the absence plan when workers are being hired into the organization or when the Update Accrual Plan Enrollments batch job is being run.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accural -> in Accural Tab, Plan Limits  -> Start Date Formula
Global Absence Plan Entitlement
The Global Absence Plan Entitlement fast formula can be used to define the entire entitlement structure for a qualification plan for cases where matrix architecture does not fit the bill.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan page Entitlements tab , Entitlement Attributes section -> Entitlement Formula
Global Absence Plan Period Anniversary Event Date
The Global Absence Plan Period Anniversary Event Date fast formula can be used to specify the date to be used as the calendar leave year start date for accrual plans whose term is of type Anniversary year.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accural -> in Accural Tab, Plan Limits  -> Anniversary Event Formula
Global Absence Plan Roll Backward End
The Global Absence Plan Roll Backward End fast formula is to be used to determine the start date of a plan term that uses the Roll Backward term rule.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, Qualification -> Plan page Plan Attributes tab, Plan Term section  -> Start Formula
Global Absence Plan Use Rate
The Global Absence Plan Use Rate fast formula can be used to dynamically specify the rate definition associated with the qualification plan depending on custom conditions.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, Qualification  -> Plan page Entries and Balances tab -> Formula
Global Absence Proration
The Global Absence Proration fast formula can be used to apply a pro-ration factor (or a multiplication factor), onto the final accrual calculated and returned by the accrual calculation rules in an accrual based absence plan.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accural ->Plan page Accruals tab, Accrual Attributes section -> Accrual Proration Formula
Global Absence Type Duration
The Global Absence Type Duration fast formula can be used to over-ride the default calculation logic that the application uses to determine the absence entry duration and accrual plan usage against absence entries.
Manage Absence Type -> Type Attributes tab, General Attributes section ->  Conversion Formula
Global Absence Vesting Period
The Global Absence Vesting Period fast formula can be used to enforce a custom vesting period (a period during which the Worker is enrolled into the plan and accruing balance but cannot use them) logic while defining an absence plan.
Manage Absence Plans -> Plan Type field, select Accural ->Plan page Accruals tab, Accrual Attributes section -> Vesting Period Formula
