When posting leave entries and/or posting time for leave, you can get a lengthy error message referencing a negative leave balance with very large numbers.
To get past the error message,
- Go into PR Leave Codes.
- Pull up the Leave Code involved
- Change the setting for Leave Balance Warning Level to Allowed without Warning. That will allow the system to process entries that would truly cause a negative leave balance to occur.
- If there is a Leave Balance Warning Override in PR Employee Leave, you will need to change the warning level there as well.
NOTE: Even when set to Allowed without Warning, there is still a warning when validating/posting.
The error occurs when the system checks Pay Period Control and sees pay periods that do not have the Leave Accrual/Usage final update box checked. It is also finding records that have been processed thru Leave Entries vs thru the Auto Leave Accrual and Usage process. The error occurs when there are unprocessed records.
The only way to get around this error is to rerun the Auto Leave Accrual/Usage process for that pay period as that is the only process that checks that box in Pay Period Control.
NOTE: Silvertrek does NOT advise going back and reopening prior pay periods (unless it's just the most current period involved) just to rerun this process.
