TA170


TA170 - Time Accrual Update

xxxRun TA170 (Time Accrual Update) to create and update transactions for
employees enrolled in time accrual plans. TA170 uses plan parameters to
calculate accrual and eligible hours, and transferred hours; TA170 uses time
records to calculate hours used. You can update either manual transactions and
current payment records, or manual transactions through a specific date.

If an employee's accrued and eligible balances exceed their limits, TA170
reduces the balances to keep them within the defined limits. If the plans
eligible hours equal accrual hours, the system checks eligible hours using the
accrual limit.

TA170 does not accrue hours for employees who have not met the length of
service requirement.

TA170 has the Drill Around feature. For more information, see Desktop Client
Getting Started.
