Limit Absence to Consecutive Scheduled Days
Note: We use Absence through Global Payroll. PUM 48.
We have a somewhat unique requirement with a certain "emergency" absence plan. When this emergency absence event initially occurs, a window of time opens where the employee can take a total of 10 consecutive scheduled working days. Is there any way to control entry through the Create and Maintain Absences screen so that when the absence begin date is selected (as Day 1), only the next 9 consecutive schedule workdays can be taken?
Example: Employee is scheduled 40 hours/week, M-F. Absence starts Monday of Week 1, employee can only enter this absence beginning Monday of Week 1 and ending Friday of Week 2. If attempted to extend (with a single absence entry) from Week 1 into Week 3 they would be prevented? Not sure if the best way is to use some combination of day count formula and forecasting or if there is another method.
