Tracking vacation, sick, and holiday

Depending on your company’s requirements, you may need to track accrual of hours for vacation, sick, and holiday. You create separate earning codes for vacation, sick, and holiday to track the hours that employees charge.

To track accruals for vacation, sick, and holiday

1. On the Earning Codes screen, create the earning code to which employees charge their hours. Make sure that you select the Check Accrual Balance check box.

2. If the code applies to all employees within the employee type, enter it on the Standard Codes screen.

3. When you create new employees and attach them to the employee type, e-timecard will automatically create the code for them. For existing employees, you must set up the code manually on the Employee Earning Codes screen.
   
   If you select the Check Accrual Balance check box on the Employee Earning Codes screen, then that screen's Balance Due field shows you the balance of hours in the employee’s account.
   
   You can manually change the value in the Balance Due field if needed.
