Importing Absence Entries from Absence Management
Recording an absence in Absence Management transfers a summary record and a daily breakdown for each day the person is absent to the person's calculation card. The summary record contains information such as the start and end date of the absence, the absence rate, the units. The daily breakdown shows the absence date and any factor to be applied, such as a percentage to use when calculating the absence payment.
Importing Absence Entries from a Third-Party
For third-party absence applications, you can load absence records using HCM Data Loader.
The View Person Process Results page lists the absence IDs included in the batch of transferred absences. View the absence entries for each person included in the batch using the Calculation Cards task in My Client Groups.
Processing Absence Entries
Transferring the absence information to a calculation card creates an element entry for the element associated to the absence plan. The payroll run processes this entry using the formula attached to the element and values from the calculation card. The resulting values are then passed back to the element entry and stored as run results and balances.
Validating Absence Results
You can verify the results of absences after calculating run results by using payroll reports or the statement of earnings. After archiving payment results, validate absence information on the Payroll Register Report or the person's payslip.
Review absence results on the following payroll reports:
-
Element Result Report
-
Gross-to-Net Report
-
Payroll Activity Report
-
Payroll Balance Report
-
Payroll Register Report
Use the View Person Process Results task in the Payroll Calculation work area or click the person's record on the Person Process Results page of the payroll calculation flow to go to the person's statement of earnings.

Correcting Absence Results
You can continue to transfer updated absence entries to a person's calculation card until the payroll calculation starts. Any further updates are then processed as retroactive absences entries in the following payroll run.
