How You Configure Eligibility for an Absence Plan

Use an eligibility profile to determine whether a person qualifies for enrollment in an absence plan.

Eligibility profiles that you associate with absence plans can determine the following:

  • Who can enroll in absence plans

  • Who can schedule absences

Using Eligibility Profiles with Absence Plans

To associate an eligibility profile with an absence plan:

  1. Create the eligibility profile using the Eligibility Profiles task in the Absences work area.

  2. Associate the eligibility profile with the absence plan using the Absence Plans task.

Example: To enable only female employees to record maternity leave, create an eligibility profile using the Manage Eligibility Profiles task. Then, when you create a maternity qualification absence plan, select the eligibility profile you created from the Eligibility section on the Participation tab.
