Create a Gatekeeper Law Absence Case

Before creating an absence case for the Gatekeeper Law, set up your sickness absence types and associate them with the predefined Gatekeeper Law absence category.

To create a Gatekeeper Law compliant absence case:

1. Search for and select the employee for whom you want to create the absence case.

2. Select Manage Absence Cases from the tasks menu in Person Management.

3. Click Create to create an absence case, and enter the name of the absence case.

4. Select Gatekeeper Law as category. This limits the absence types that can be added for a Gatekeeper Law case. It's also used to trigger the Gatekeeper Law checklist allocation later.

5. In the Associated Absences section, click Select and Add to associate one or more absences to the case.

   Note: Any absence you add is subject to the 28-day validation rule.

6. Select the absences that you want to associate with the Gatekeeper Law absence case.

7. Click OK.

8. Click Submit.

Once you have successfully submitted the absence case, the Gatekeeper Law Start Date is displayed in the Manage Absence Cases page under Absence Case Legislative Information section.

Note: The Gatekeeper Law Start Date is a read-only field and is updated automatically whenever a new absence is added to the case.
