Concept: Calculated Time Offs

Time entry, including time offs entered through Time Tracking, are restricted by the lockout date on the time entry period of the period schedule. When the period is locked, users can’t edit, or enter new time blocks or time offs unless the user has access to the

Time Tracking: Exempt from Lockout

domain.

Time offs entered through Absence don’t have this restriction. When you use Absence to enter a time off that falls into a locked time entry period, and the

Enable Calculated Time Off

option is selected on the time entry template, you need to rerun time calculations to get the correct calculated time off.

Calculated time off blocks receive a shift date when advanced shift is configured on the time entry template. When advanced shift is configured, the daily totals on the time entry calendar reflect the shift date. Time calculations that reference shift date also use this for calculated time offs.

Reported time offs don’t have a shift date and aren’t counted as part of a shift.
