Accruals add on

The Accruals add-on, which is located at the bottom of the timecard, displays information such as accrued sick and vacation time. The information that appears depends on the timeframe selected in the timecard.

    • If you select a date range, accruals for the first day appear.
    • As you click tap on days in the selected time period, the accruals reflect the available balances, taking into consideration any upcoming grants or requests, for the same time period.
    • If you click tap on a flanking day or a make-up day, the timecard continues to display the last selected day in the time period.
      • Flanking day is the day before and after a span of time, such as a pay period.
    • The information that appears on the Accruals add-on is based on the accrual columns selected when the tab was created.

When you select the Accruals add-on, each accrual type is listed in a separate row with the available and ending balance displayed. Tap the arrow to open the accrual detail page. The following information is listed:

    • Accrual Code — The code tied to the accrual policy determined by the Accrual Profile assigned to the employee.
    • Accrual Units — The accrual type: hours, money, or days.
    • Accrual Available Balance — The encumbered balance for an accrual code. The encumbered balance is the amount available on the day but takes into consideration any upcoming grants or requests for the same time period.
    • Accrual Reporting Period — The reporting period in which the "as-of" date falls, all fields below are relative to this period.
    • Accrual Opening Vested — Vested balance on the first day of the reporting period
    • Accrual Ending Vested — Vested balance in the accrual on the last day of the reporting period.
