Negative Balance Compensation

Explore effective strategies for managing negative balances and ensuring compensation stability in financial accounts.

If an employee’s Balance is negative at the end of the time-off update cycle, accumulated hours from the Time Off counter will be used to compensate for that negative balance.

  • If an employee’s Balance is negative at the end of the time-off update cycle, accumulated hours from the Time Off counter will be used to compensate for that negative balance.
  • If there are not enough accumulated hours, the Time Off counter itself may become negative.
  • If this option is disabled, negative balances will not be transferred to Time Off.
  • If this option is enabled, negative transfers to Time Off are unlimited.

 
 

How counters work in the timesheet

In the timesheet, several counters coexist, each with different rules:

Balance counter

  • Can be positive or negative
  • Becomes negative when the employee’s effective working time is lower than the Planned or Agreement time (depending on the reference point)
  • Is updated daily

Extra Hours Counter

  • Can never be negative
  • Always remains positive
  • Calculated based on the configured calculation frequency

Complementary Hours Counters

  • Can never be negative
  • Always remain positive
  • Also calculated based on the configured calculation frequency
