Prevent (or at least warn) negative accrual balances?

Post by jjoelc »

Is there a way in TimeTrex to prevent negative balances of vacation/sick time? Or at least warn the manager when they are entering an absence that the employee does not have enough available time accrued?

Our company does not allow you to use more paid time off than you have available.. So, if an employee had 6 hours available, but took 8 hours off, then 6 would be paid, the remaining 2 would be unpaid. So far, it seems that the manager will have to manually look up the available accrual balance for that employee, then manually choose the correct number of hours for each type of absence? Is there any other way?

Thanks!

Whenever absences are entered or scheduled, TimeTrex clearly displays the remaining accrual balance right on that screen, however it will not prevent a negative balance scenario, that is up to the supervisors to handle themselves, since there are always exceptions.
