How to Setup up Leave Accrual Plan

Accrual Plan:Oracle Provides Accrual plan Functionality for calculating leaves balance calculation and Balance Carry Over calculationsThe following points should be taken into consideration for calculation Balances

1.       Opening Balance : -Some of the Organization Provides Yearly opening balance to employee. We need to store these opening balances in an Element

2.       Leave Adjustment: -There are cases in which adjustments are made because of redundancies in calculation of leave balance. In such cases we need to store these adjustments in an element and make the use of the same.

3.       Leave Encashment:Organizations provide policy for encashment of leave when Leave balance exceeds a given amount. In order to capture these details, we need to have an element for the same

6)     Go to Accrual Bands to define the No of Leaves employee could avail during the Year

7)     Go to Net Accrual Calculations to record the leave calculation

8)     When one creates an accrual plan, system automatically generate below said elements and their corresponding links too (Create Links Manually if not created Automatically)

Now in the Above Scenario we are using the seeded Formula “PTO_PAYROLL_CALCULATION”, this would calculate as per the accrual bands set for the said duration of Service. 

Requirements could vary as per each of the clients; we have created a scenario wherein we would be taking the Accruals as per the contract type of the employee
