Examples of Configuring a Concurrent Absence Type

This example shows how you can configure the concurrency rule so that a worker can record a concurrent absence for the same time period through multiple absence types. You configure the concurrency rule in the Display Features tab when you create an absence type.

Configuring the Concurrency Rule for an Absence Type

Scenario: A worker falls ill during a vacation period. You want to enable the worker to record a sickness absence for some dates overlapping with the vacation dates.

To ensure the worker can record a concurrent sickness absence, you must enable concurrency in the Display Features tab for one of the absence types. When concurrency is enabled, depending on the rules defined by the worker's enterprise, the worker can:

• Receive sickness entitlements

• Recover vacation days for those overlapping sickness days
