Configuring the Hour Bank Calculation Method
The method for calculating vacation and sick leave hour banks can vary from one organization to another.
In some cases, hours are credited at the start of the fiscal year or contract and then deducted as needed. In other cases, hours are accumulated gradually.
Feuille de Temps adapts and automatically calculates hour banks once the rules are configured for your organization.
To follow the instructions in this article, you will need access to the manager features.
