Awarding Accrual Hours with a Future Date

[Yajasi]

We have an accrual policy that we are using to manually award employees extra vacation time for various reasons. As you can see in the example below, we have an employee with no awards this year (i.e. Initial Balance = 0) and 104:00 hours of vacation effective 01-Jan-2015.

HOWEVER, if you look closely in the shadowed area of the screen shot, you can see that TT is calculating the employees balance as 104:00. TT is using this value of 104:00 to display on the employees' Pay Stubs under the box that says "Accrual Time Balances as of 07-Nov-13" which is not true because the balance as of 07-Nov-13 is 00:00.

What are we doing wrong? Thanks in advance!

Accrual entries in the future still affect the employees balance.

Just to be clear, does that mean that the date on an accrual entry has no effect on the balance of the accrual? If so, why even have a date field?

That is correct, the date has no effect on the balance, its used primarily for accounting/tracking purposes.

OK thanks for the clarification.

That is correct, the date has no effect on the balance, its used primarily for accounting/tracking purposes.

The folks in our accounting department would really appreciate the date having an effect on the balance. For some reason our accountants like correct balances … haha . Could we make this a feature request? Thanks for your help.
