Generate Historical Entitlement

After identifying the additional data requirement and entering it on the absence record, you can run the Evaluation Absence process to generate the entitlement to statutory payment on historical absence records.

Run Evaluation Absence Process

  1. Select Schedule and Monitor Absence Processes task from the Absence Administration work area.
  2. Run Evaluate Absences process from list.
  3. Enter the parameters as required:
    Field Description
    Effective Date This should be the same date as identified in Step 1. Any absence records with a start date before the effective date will not be processed.
    Run as test This field should remain unselected as this is not currently supported for the UK. This is because the SSP calculations rely on the availability of entitlement from previous absences. If they aren't available, the calculations will be incorrect.
    Increment effective date This field should remain selected.
    Person Selection Rule To filter based on additional criteria, you can write a Fast Formula for the type Person Selection.
  4. In the Population Filters section, you can select various criteria to restrict the number of employees for whom the process will run.
  5. Verify the entitlement results for the processed absences against the results in your legacy application.

    If there are any discrepancies, you can update the data and rerun the process.

Note: If you have other plans attached to your absence types, those plans will also be re-evaluated by the process. Based on the assumption that there has been no change in the absence records, there should be no change in entitlement to those plans as a result of running the process.
