Options for the Evaluate Certification Updates Process

You can check if certification requirements for multiple employees are past their due dates using the Evaluate Certification Updates process in the Absences work area.

When a requirement is past the due date, the process updates the absence records and entitlements. You typically run this process daily to check if certifications are overdue.

You run this process only when absence types have certification requirements and those requirements include actions to take after due dates have passed. For example, you want to change the employee's entitlement to half pay as of the absence start date when a certification requirement passes its due date. When the employee completes the requirement, you can recalculate the entitlements from the absence start date or the completion date.
