  • 1.  Payroll Benefit Accrual 2018

    Posted 03-26-2019 11:55
    Client has a Time Off Code setup with a Rate Table.  Rate changes on 36 and 120 months.  Has "12" in the Eligibility HOURS field.
    Employee shows eligibility date of 02/28/2009 but still showing pre 120 rate.  I have to change it back to 02/28/2008 to make it change.  Appears to be using Eligibility hours in calculation.

    On 2017, setup the Benefit code the same way, changed Hire Date to 02/28/2009 and it shows the 120+ rate.  I'm thinking this is correct - the Eligibility Hours should only affect the start of accrual - should not affect the date at which the accrual rate changes.

    Any opinions?

    Yes, it appears that the '12' is causing (additional) delay in the benefit.  Perhaps this definition of the field located in version 2018 will help - "Type the delay in months after the employee's time off eligibility date that accrued hours become available. Time off hours will accrue per the time off setup, but the employee cannot use it until the specified number of months have elapsed. When that time period has elapsed, all eligible hours become available."

    I guess the big thing is that it appears to be working differently than it did in 2017.  It did not affect when the rate changed in 2017.
