We use Payroll for North America ( not Global Payroll). Can we still set up absence management?

We are looking into using parts of Absence Management for self service.  we are on HCM 9.2 /8.57.06

We use Payroll for North America.  I see that absence management is tied to Global payroll.  We would like to be able to use the self service functions of Absence Management for people to request time off.

Can this be done even though we do not use Global Payroll?
