Self-Service Features

Self-service features include:

• Absence entry and forecasting.

  Payees and managers can enter requests for absences through a web browser, view requests, and forecast absence balances as of a particular date.

• Absence approval.

  Managers can approve, deny, or push back absence requests online.

• Country specific display configurations.

  You can define country specific rules for how the self-service pages appear. For example, you can control the way that entitlement balances, absence history, and forecasting options appear to users.

• Take-specific display configurations.

  You can define a variety of rules and settings that control how data appears on the self-service pages. For example, you can control who can enter and approve absence requests, date rules, and how messages are returned and appear to users. Also, if you have Time and Labor installed, you can enable specific absences to be requested in Time and Labor's Timesheets.

  See PeopleSoft Time and Labor: Timesheet Page.

• Forecasting rules.

  You can define how entitlement balances appear for both forecasting results and balance inquiry results.

• Configurable self-service text.

  You can modify the text that appears on self-service absence pages. Using the Text Catalog feature, you can modify field labels, button text, and text that appears elsewhere on self-service pages.
