Define Counting Classes for the Period Work Schedule


In this step, you define counting classes for your period work schedules, which are used to valuate attendances and absences. You can query the class in Define Rules for Absence Counting.


Use different counting classes for period work schedules with very long daily work schedules (10 hours) and many days off. In this case, more than 1.00 leave days is calculated for each workday.


Example
According to a company ruling, one day of leave should be calculated per workday for a particular employee group. Assign counting class 1 to this group's period work schedule. Another employee group is to be credited with 1.25 leave days for each workday. Assign counting class 2 to their period work schedule.


When you maintain counting rules, you must define a separate rule for each class.


Requirements
