Enter the leave code that you wish to use to further define the method or predetermined schedule for accruing leave. You can establish several leave codes for each leave type. The code is a six-character alphanumeric, user-defined field. Be sure to assign the leave code to the appropriate leave type, because the characteristics of the leave type also apply to the leave code (for example, leave period ceiling). This is a required field.

Enter a description to associate with the leave code in this field.

Enter, or click to select, the leave type that is assigned to this leave cycle. This field loads from the Manage Leave Types screen.

Enter, or click to select, the leave code for paying out excess leave balances.

Select this check box to include negative balances in the leave year carryover. If this check box is not selected, the negative balances are brought to zero.

Select this check box to convert and report the leave hours in days on leave statements and in Deltek Time & Expense.

If you select the Report Leave to Employee in Days check box, enter the number of hours in this field which will be considered as one leave day.

Select this option if the starting basis for calculating the number of days to defer is the employee's Current Hire date on the Manage Employee Information screen.

Select this option if the starting basis for calculating the number of days to defer is the employee's Leave Hire Date on the Manage Employee Leave screen.

Enter the number of days to defer the availability (usage) of leave by an employee in this four-digit numeric field. This deferral applies even though the employee is accruing credit for leave earned, based on the employee's leave-hire date or hire date.

For example, company policy may allow leave to accrue from an employee's hire date, but may require a 90-day waiting period from the hire date before an employee can begin to use the accrued leave.

Enter, or click to select, the leave modifier code for leave accruals based on hours. The options in this field load from the Configure Leave Modify Codes application. The leave modifier rules apply the leave table when you execute the Compute Leave Accruals screen. The Leave Modifier code is only required for the Leave Table when the leave accrual is based on hours.

Select this check box to enable the Eligible Labor Locations subtask, which allows you to select specific Labor Locations to include in the leave basis.
