Calendars

To run an absence process, the relevant components of the system are tied together through the use of calendars. A calendar controls whose absence results will be calculated, and the period of time for which the absences are processed.

Only one pay group can be associated with a calendar. Through the use of various selection criteria, you can define who is going to be paid:

• Calendar run types define the type of absence run; for example, a regular absence run or an off-cycle absence run.

• Calendar period IDs define the period of time for which the absences are processed.

• Calendar group ID groups the calendars that you want to process at the same time.

This diagram shows how calendars ties together the components of an absence run.
