Accrue Absence Hours When Payroll Runs

You can set up DPS to accrue absence hours every time that you process payroll.

To set up DPS to accrue absence hours when a payroll run is processed:

  1. On the Navigation menu, click Settings > Accounting > Company.
  2. Click the Timesheets tab.
  3. Select the Accrue absence hours when payroll is processed option.
  4. Click Save. The next time that a regular payroll run is processed, absence hours are accrued.
DPS calculates the number of absence accrual hours each pay period by dividing the annual number of absence accrual hours by the number of pay periods in the year. For example, if an employee earns 120 hours of vacation per year and you process payroll twice a month, DPS divides the 120 hours by the 24 pay periods, and accrues 5 hours each pay period.
