Global Absence Carryover Proration

The Global Absence Carryover Proration fast formula can be used in cases where a proration factor (or a multiplication factor) needs to be applied onto the maximum carryover limit.

An organization might have a rule which asks for the carryover to be prorated based on FTE or even their job. In such a case, after the carryover rule is defined, the carryover proration rule can be composed to return a proration factor which will be multiplied onto the carryover amount before returning the final value against the worker’s enrollment data.

Sample Formula

Requirement: The organization has a carryover rule which allows workers to carry forward only 5 days of their vacation balance into the next year. This carryover needs to be prorated by FTE for workers who have the jobs ‘Wealth Management’ or ‘Trade Associate’ assigned against their assignment record.

Solution: A Global Absence Carryover Proration formula such as the one below can be used.

FORMULA NAME: ANC_CRRYOVRPRORAT

FORMULA TYPE: Global Absence Carryover Proration

DESCRIPTION: This formula returns the proration factor for the carryover limit for the absence plan

DEFAULT FOR PER_ASG_FTE_VALUE IS 1
DEFAULT FOR PER_ASG_JOB_NAME IS ' '

prorationFactor = 1

IF (PER_ASG_JOB_NAME = 'Wealth Management Consultant' OR PER_ASG_JOB_NAME = 'Trade Associate')
THEN
 (prorationFactor = ROUND(PER_ASG_FTE_VALUE,2))

RETURN prorationFactor
