How to get Hours on new Element to post to Accrual Plan
We are on 12.2 EBS. We have an existing Accrual Plan titled "Comp Time" which has been there for several years. Staff want to create a new earning element titled "Bilingual Pay CTO" that will calculate some hours in the fast formula based on other elements. We set up Formula Result Rules to return the hours and the effective date back to the input values of the element. When you look at run results on a test Quick Pay, it shows the date and the hours. It doesn't appear that this is dumped into the element entry record though.
We set up the element in the Net Calculation Rules of the "Comp Time" accrual with date and hours as input values, adding to net. After the QP, when you look at the accrual, it doesn't appear to have been affected.
