Delivered Absence Rules

The following table lists the absence take elements that included with Global Payroll for Switzerland and identifies the units in which the absence take is calculated (hours or days).

The Earning Units Paid and Earning Units Unpaid columns identify the formulas that populate the units paid and units unpaid values used by the earning calculation. The columns show only the suffix of the formula name. The full name of each formula is CH_AB_COUNT followed by the unique suffix.

If a count formula appears in the Earning Units Unpaid column, but not in the Earning Units Paid column, the absence is always unpaid. If a formula appears in both columns, the absence is unpaid only when the entitlement balance is zero or less.

The Priority column shows the relative priority of the absence when a payee has more than one absence event for the same date. Lower number outrank higher numbers.
