Additional Days to be Calculated based on Service Period {PLCS-5} 


This program is used to store the rules applicable to additional leave credits calculated based on the Employee’s years/months of service.

The Leave Package may be linked to the Appointment Types which must be used when determining the employees, continuous service period in order to determine if additional days must be created {PLCS-7}.  If this is defined, the Continuous Service Period will be determined where the employee was appointed to these Appointment Types. If not defined the entire Continuous Service Period (Months/Years) will be determined using all Appointment Types. The additional leave credits are calculated by running {PLOP-12} and record is generated as a separate record to the Standard Leave Credit Calc record {PLOP-2}
