Employee Vacation Tracking

We have to do the same thing. I made a report builder report that shows the
vacation hours entered and we have to use that report and change the hours
on that day from Regular to Vacation.

Subject: RE: [Vantage] Employee Vacation Tracking

I am having a problem getting the vacation and sick hours to transfer
from Data Collection to the payroll. When I "Generate Checks" the
vacation and sick hours do not transfer and I have to go back and
manually change from regular hours. I am running 5.2. We do not
allocate vacation on a periodic basis (weekly) but in annual lump based
on years of service. Any suggestions?

The vacation accrual works pretty well for us. You just set up the
amount that is accrued each week for each
employee (ie: 1.54 hours/wk for 2 weeks vacation). Vantage updates it
when payroll is processed and subtracts the amount that
was used. It also has "sick time" which you could probably use for
your Personal time accrual. Our employees like seeing it on their
check and it has really cut down on the questions about how much
vacation time they have left, etc.

BlankWe are getting ready to install the 6.1 upgrade in a test
environment
next week and will take several months to study it before we go live.
I
have been asked a question by the payroll department and was hoping
someone
could help.

Does 6.1 have a way to track Vacation and Personal time accrued and
used by
employees? We currently use data collection to gather our payroll
data and
then export the files to a payroll service, so we are just looking for
a way
to track vacation.

The payroll module does have some sort of vacation accrual, but my
recollections are that it wasn't very flexible. We could not make it work
for the way we accrue our vacation. You should look at it, though, as it
might work for you. The additional bad thing about it for us is that the
payroll check form is not a crystal form, so you can't keep the bogus
vacation accrual information from showing up on the check stubs (correct me
if I'm wrong for later versions as we are still on 3.0).

From what I can tell, Vantage does not track properly. If a payroll
check is voided, it does not add any Vacation or Personal time back. I
use an Excel worksheet to track 31 employees.
