Using 2 vacation codes

Posted on by 935

My client pays out accrued vacation over a certain amount at the end of the year.  They would like to use a second vacation pay code for this payout.  Is it possible to link the two codes so when they use the second one it will draw down their accrued vacation? 

The only way I can figure to do it is to use the second code then edit the balance for the regular code.  

They use HR to accrue their vacation time.

Thank you for any help with this.

    Thank you for confirming there isn't an easy way to do it.  We'll just have to figure out a way to report it, it will have to be some manual adjustment.  I just wanted to make sure I hadn't missed something.

    Thanks!

    This kind of makes my brain hurt. The only thing that occurs to me would be to perhaps design a custom SQL trigger that updated the remaining balances on each code.

    You'd have to be very careful, though, if they're accruing time, because you don't want to mess up those calculations.

    All in all, a trigger isn't a very good idea for this.

    Maybe it's just an annual year-end task to run a SmartList that shows YTD balances for each code, and then manual updates, as needed.
