Running the Audit Report in HRS

Overview

This procedure will walk you through how to run the Absence Management Audit Report and the different outputs of this report. This report is intended to identify situations that may require a review of absence data and potential payout/payback of absence balances and/or absence balance adjustments.

Process Considerations:

The Absence Management Audit Report (AM Audit Report) identifies 3 scenarios that will occur in HRS and may need review or updates to Absence data based on the scenario.

  • Employees with concurrent jobs in different Absence Eligibility groups.
  • Employees that have transferred between different Absence Eligibility groups.
  • Employees that are rehired with a break in service of greater than 3 days.
