Enable the Case Model

France absence management is using the case model to manage sickness absences. You need to enable the usage of the case model.

To use the case model:

Navigation: Navigator > Setup and Maintenance > Manage Common Lookups > Absence Plans

1. In the Absence Plans page, click Create and add the following details:
   • Lookup Type: HRX_FR_ABS_CONFIG
   • Lookup Value: HRX_FR_SICKNESS
2. Enter the start date of using the case model.
3. Click Save and Close.

Note: This is a temporary way of enabling the case model and is to be used only on test PODs for the time being.

The sickness absence type is used to manage:

• Regular
• Post Natal Pathological leave
• Long Term Sickness (French: affection de longue durée. ALD)
• No waiting period (Miscarriage)

When creating an absence record for an employee, the default value is Regular.

The following information is available at absence or case entry level:

Name	Description	Level
Medical Certificate	Check box to confirm that a medical certificate exists. The certificate can be stored and attached to the absence record	Absence entry
Daily Salary Basis	User enterable field to enter a monetary value to be used instead of (override) the system calculated one	Absence entry and case level
Salary Override	The user can enter a value which should be used to calculate the payments when there is insufficient information for normal processing e.g., for the calculation of the IJSS, the system needs to calculate the reconstituted salary for the past 3 months. For a new starter, the payroll system does not have the previous 3 months payment information. You'd use the salary override field to pass the 3 months averaged reconstituted salaries.	Absence entry and case level
Consumed days	This field can be used when migrating absences from a legacy system. That will pass on the value of the entitlement days that have already been consumed so that the system can determine what's left in terms of entitlement.	Case Level
