Leave accrual rounding
When an employee is either enrolled or unenrolled, leave accrual rounding will be prorated. Previously, rounding was only allowed when a leave plan was set to prorate, and an employee was enrolled/unenrolled during mid-period. Leave accruals will now round regardless of enrollment/unenrollment at mid-period or at the start of a period.

This feature helps leave and absence managers understand the leave and absence accrual transactions related to an employee’s time off balances for a specific leave type.
To view transaction details:
- On the employee's record, select Leave.
- Select View time off, and then select the Balances tab. To view the accrual transactions related to a specific leave type, select the numerical value in the Current balance column.
To view the transaction details for a specific accrual amount, select an accrual row, open the Related information panel on the right, and then open the Transaction details section. The Transaction details section displays:
- Changes to the employee’s leave type balance
- Employment details for that specified accrual period
- Details about the accrual period and rates
- Any changes made to leave plan configurations
