Hi Vineet,

The current design is as follows:

  1. Employee's default Shift is used to calculate the "previous working day" and "next working day"
  2. "Previous Working Day" is the previous date with "Segment 1" hours greater than zero and it is not a public holiday
  3. "Next Working Day" is the next date with "Segment 1" greater than zero and it is not a public holiday.
  4. The system then checks if the employee "Has Worked" or "Has Leave" on the "Previous Working Day" and "Next Working Day"
  5. "Has Worked" checks if there is:
    1. Time entry with a status "Submitted",'Approved","Processed","Approval In Progress"
    2. Timesheet with "Normal" + "Time Half" + "Double Time" + "Holiday" hours greater than zero
  6. "Has Leave" checks if there is:
    1. Leave transaction with "Hours taken" greater than zero
    2. Leave status is either "Approved" or "Taken"
    3. Leave is not a "Leave without Pay"
    4. Leave is not sold
Based on the current design, which process do you want to change?

regards
Alvis

Below is the business scenario:

For PAFCO, their Day 1 is Monday and Day 7 is Sunday. Employees are usually rostered for 5 days, however depending on workload some are rostered for 6 days. Employees are rostered to work from Monday to Friday, Tuesday to Saturday and Wednesday to Sunday. Employees are given 2 days day offs. This day off is either on Saturday and Sunday, Sunday and Monday or Monday and Tuesday depending on the Employees Roster. PAFCO has the below custom rules:

  1. Employees working  for consecutive 6 days will be paid 5 hours Time&Half and remaining double provided normal hours of 42.5 has been worked.
  2. Employees working for consecutive 7 days will be paid double time provided normal hours of 42.5 has been worked.

Below is the shift setup for PAFCO .

Now with the current setup as above, when there is a public holiday, system is expecting employees to be available at work for all 7 days, however employee will only work on the Rostered day. For this reason most employees are missed out on the Public Holiday entitlement. 

The change we are requesting for is to add a rule for process ESS001 as ESS001-03 Compare Rostered Days with Work Days to Determine consecutive hours worked. If this is set to Y, system will look for expected worked days in the Roster instead of the Seg 1 hours. 

I hope the above clarifies your query.

Regards
Vineet Ram

Development work for this case has been completed.

The change will be available in version:11.0.0821

1. The following changes were made(Include Database object names, Program classes and any other relevant information):

  1. Extended the public holiday entitlement to check for an employees roster. If a roster for the day is not found, then default employee shift is used.

2. Affected Areas:

  1. Process ESS001 - Create "Public Holiday Entitled" time entries for employees marked as "Timesheet". 

3. The issue was caused by:

  1. Change request

4. Notes: 

Company XYZ has the following shifts:

DS: 8am-5pm Seg 1 hours = 8, Seg 2 hours = 2, seg 3 hours = 24 for all days (Mon-Sun)

OFF: 8am-5pm Seg 1 hours = 0, Seg 2 hours = 0, seg 3 hours = 24 for all days (Mon-Sun)

Public Holiday Date: 26/08/2019


An employee is rostered as follows:

19 Aug20 Aug21 Aug22 Aug23 Aug24 Aug25 Aug26 Aug27 Aug28 Aug
DSDSDsDsDSOFFOFFDSDSDS


The public holiday entitlement gets the previous and next working day as follows:

  • Previous Working Day: 23 Aug
  • Next Working Day: 27 Aug
The employee would be entitled to public holiday if they had worked on 23rd Aug and 27th Aug.


5. Next Step: UAT
