Time is being deducted twice !!!

Post by aeltalkhawy »

I'm using Timetrex 2.2.13

I have the following configuration:

1 - "Authorized Absence Accrual Policy" Accrual Policy that are accumulated each pay period by 4 hours and can't exceed 4 hours, it represents the paid 4 hours that the employee could take each month without money or time deduction.

2 - "Over Time Accrual Policy" Accrual Policy that accrual overtime for each employee, there aren't any milestones, and no limit for hours could be accrued.

3 - "Authorized Absence Policy" Absence Policy with:
Type:paid, Withdraw from Accrual Policy: "Authorized Absence Accrual Policy"

4 - "Docked Over Time Absence Policy" Absence Policy with:
Type:Dock, Withdraw from Accrual Policy: "Over Time Accrual Policy"

5 - "Over Scheduled Time Policy" Over Time policy with:
Type: over schedule/No schedule
Active After: 8
Rate: 1
Deposit to Accrual Policy: "Over Time Accrual Policy"
Accrual Rate: 1

6 - "Default Schedule Policy" Schedule Policy with:
Undertime Absence Policy: "Docked Over Time Absence Policy"
Overtime Policy: "Over Time Accrual Policy"
Start / Stop Window: 8


What should happen is as follows:
when employee works more than working hours(8 hours), that overtime should be accumulated in "Over Time Accrual Policy", and when he works less than working hours by default it should deduct under schedule working hours from its overtime accrual policy "Docked Over Time Absence Policy".
But we have paid 4 hours absence monthly for each employee, that if employee didn't use them before the end of the pay period it won't be accumulated to the next pay period but rather be overridden by the 4 hours of the next pay period, so employee prefers to deducts from the that 4 hours before starting deducting from "Over Time Accrual Policy"

The problem that when an employee works less than scheduled hours it deducts from "Over Time Accrual Policy" by applying "Docked Over Time Absence Policy", but when i try to change the type of that absence to "Authorized Absence Policy" it deducts from the other accrual policy "Authorized Absence Accrual Policy" without adding the hours he deducted from "Over Time Accrual Policy".

So when in that case the absence hours are deducted twice from employee balances, one time from "Over Time Accrual Policy" and the other from "Authorized Absence Accrual Policy"

are there any soultion to that problem?

Is that a bug in TImetrex?
