Editing a Holiday Program |
|
To edit an existing holiday program:
From the Time & Attendance menu, select Setup.
Note: If the Setup option is not visible, Practitioner.
Under the Dates heading, click the Holiday Programs link. The Holiday Programs page displays a list of the holiday programs defined for your company.
Click the name of the holiday program you want to edit. The Holiday Program page opens and displays a description of the holiday program, the option settings for the program, and a list of the specific holidays that have been defined for the program.
Tip: If the list of holiday programs used by your company is long, use the Search Options to help you find the holiday program you want to edit.
If necessary, edit the text in the Description field. This description appears in the list of programs on the Holiday Programs page and can help you determine which program to select when you are viewing or editing holiday programs.
Note: If your company supports more than one language, edit the descriptions in the text box for each language.
If necessary, change the holiday processing option settings by selecting or de-selecting the following check boxes:
Automatic Calculation of Holiday - Select this check box if you want the Holiday Processor to run automatically every time an employee's timecard is processed. The Holiday Processor evaluates whether an employee is eligible for each holiday in the program. If an employee is eligible for a holiday, the Holiday Processor "awards" the holiday by entering the appropriate time pair or hours in the employee's timecard. If this box is not selected, the Holiday Processor runs only at specific times, as defined by your ADP Time & Attendance Representative.
Update Awarded Holiday upon Re-run - Select this check box if you want any holidays that have already been awarded to be updated, if applicable, each time the Holiday Processor runs. If this box is not selected, the first award generated by the Holiday Processor is not overwritten when any of the parameters affecting the holidays in the program are changed. For example, if this box is checked and your company changes the holiday pay distribution setting that controls how many hours of pay employees receive for one of the holidays in the program, any awards that have been recorded (but not yet paid) for that holiday will be updated to reflect the new policy. If this box is not checked, the holiday awards will not be updated to reflect the new policy.
Remove Awarded Holiday if Disqualified Upon Re-run - Select this check box if you want any holidays that have already been awarded to be removed if an employee who was previously qualified for a holiday later becomes disqualified. This may happen if your company uses holiday qualification rules that required employees to work certain days or a certain number of hours or days before a holiday in order to receive holiday pay. For example, if an employee's timecard data changes after an award has been made, he/she may become ineligible for the holiday. If this box is checked and the employee does become disqualified, the award would be removed when the Holiday Processor ran again. If the box is not checked, an employee in this situation would be paid for the holiday, since the original award would not be removed.
Note: The two options relating to subsequent runs (re-runs) of the Holiday Processor only affect automatically generated holiday time pairs. If a user has manually edited a holiday time pair, the Holiday Processor will not overwrite it, even if these options are selected.
Click the Submit button.
