Leave across multiple pay periods

It is possible for a leave request to span multiple pay periods - but only the total hours are provided in the file. This page explains how those hours are distributed in this situation. Alternatively, UpSheets can be configured to calculate leave hours to change this behaviour.

​
Allocation

To allocate the hours to multiple periods, the total number of hours are split evenly between each period (in whole hours). Any remaining hours are allocated to the first period.

​
Example 1 – Single pay period, 10 hours

Period one: 01-Jan-2019 to 06-Jan-2019 / 10 Hours

​
Example 2 – Two pay periods, 20 hours

Period one: 01-Jan-2019 to 06-Jan-2019 / 10 Hours Period two: 07-Jan-2019 to 13-Jan-2019 / 10 Hours

​
Example 3 – Three pay periods, 20 hours

Period one: 01-Jan-2019 to 06-Jan-2019 / 8 Hours (the additional 2 hours are allocated here) Period two: 07-Jan-2019 to 13-Jan-2019 / 6 Hours Period three: 14-Jan-2019 to 20-Jan-2019 / 6 Hours
