Managing Existing Absence Plans

You can update or correct existing absence plans from the Absence Plans page.

Best Practices for Inactivating Absence Plans

You can inactivate absence plans as of a specific date, but you need to ensure that you don't run accruals beyond this date. If you do, employees can't add or withdraw absences. That's because the application attempts to rerun accruals and reprocess future absences that lie beyond the inactive date of the plan.

Ensure that you set the plan inactivation date to a date that's after the accrual run date for all employees. Employees won't be able to perform transactions if the absence plan is inactivated. Decide how you want to deal with the accrued leave balances of the employees. You should either un-enroll all employees from the plan before you inactivate it or withdraw accruals to a date prior to the inactivation date using the Withdraw Accruals and Balances process.

Before you make any date effective changes to the plan, try it out on test environment first. See whether the change produces the results you expect. If it does, implement the change on a production environment.
