Create Event Processing Rules to Reprocess Absences

You can use HCM Events to configure absence types to automatically reprocess absences when an employee’s work pattern or work schedule changes across HCM. This eliminates the need to schedule multiple absence processes to manage such reprocessing across absences.

Create Event Condition

Here’s how:

1. In the My Client Groups tab, click the HCM Experience Design Studio quick action.
2. Click the Event Conditions tab.
3. Click Add.
4. Enter the necessary details of the event. Based on your requirement, specify the entity as Work Pattern Assignment, Work Pattern Break, or Work Pattern Shift. In the Condition Details section, enter the specific details of the conditions of the event in which it will be triggered. You need to enter the details for how a particular data changes from old to new.
5. Click Save and Close.

Configure Absence Type

Specify which absence types track that event and what needs to happen when that event is detected. Here’s how you configure the absence type to respond to the event::

1. Click the newly added Additional Details tab in the absence type setup page.
2. In the Event Processing section, click Select and Add.
3. In the Select and Add Event Processing Rule window, select the event from the Event You can configure how an absence plan responds when this event occurs by selecting an option from the Response option.
4. Click OK, then Save and Close.

When you're done setting up the absence types, you can use the Process Events absence process to process all events. You can find this process in the Schedule and Monitor Absence Processes page.
