Schedule Leave Type Effects Synchronization

Schedule Leave Type Effects Synchronization

Security:
Set Up: Leave of Absence
 domain in the Time Off and Leave functional area.
You can synchronize your leave type configurations on all existing leave request events if you've changed your configuration on the
Edit Leave Type
 task after workers have already requested leave. You can synchronize changes to the:
  • Leave Impacts
     section (on the
    Details
     tab).
  • Prorate by Leave Percentage
     setting (on the
    Balance/Leave Taken
     tab).
These changes indicate whether:
  • The leave event impacts other areas in Workday for workers.
  • To prorate leave units by the value of the
    Leave Percentage
     additional field on the request.
  1. Access the
    Schedule Leave Type Effects Synchronization
     task.
  2. Enter a
    Request Name
     for the background process so that you can later easily identify the job in the
    Process Monitor
    .
  3. As you complete the
    Synchronize Leave Type Effects Processing
     tab, consider:
    option
    Description
    Leave Types
    Select 1 or more leave types to synchronize.
    Professional Leave Effect
    Select to indicate that the related leave type is a professional leave type, which might affect the timing of professional leave eligibility.
    Prorate by Leave Percentage
    Select to prorate the number of leave units by the value of the
    Leave Percentage
     additional field on the request. Workday reduces the worker's balance entitlement by a prorated amount when the leave isn't full time.
    Sabbatical Effect
    Select to indicate that the related leave type is a sabbatical leave type, which might affect the timing of sabbatical eligibility.
    Scheduling Effect
    Select to indicate that the related leave type is a scheduling leave type. You can schedule workers to work while on this type of leave.
    Talent Effect
    Select to indicate that Workday should remove the worker on this type of leave from the
    Worker
     prompt of specific employee reviews and feedback in Talent.
    Tenure Effect
    Select to indicate that the related leave type is a tenure leave type and might affect the timing of tenure eligibility.
  4. (Optional) Select
    Start Date
     and
    End Date
     values to synchronize successfully completed leave events within a date range. For the date range, you can specify a start date, end date, or both. If you don't select any dates, Workday synchronizes all leave events.
  5. (Optional) As you complete the
    Schedule
     tab, consider:
    Option
    Description
    Priority
    Setting a higher priority can reduce potential queuing. Workday launches
    Critical
     priority jobs first, and processes them in any order. Workday repeats this process for each lower priority category, in order of priority.
    Run Once in the Future
    Select all of these values to schedule the synchronization process to run on a specific date, at a specific time, and in a specific time zone. If you don't specify all of these values, Workday runs the process immediately.
