Recurring Absence Journal

Use the Recurring Absence Journal instead of the regular Absence Journal when a credit or correction should repeat automatically — a monthly accrual, for example — rather than being entered by hand every time.

Set up a recurring line

  1. Go to Recurring Absence Journal.
  2. Add a line and set the Type (Credit, Debit, Transfer, or Payout — see Absence Journal), Employee No., Cause of Absence Code, and Quantity, the same as a regular absence journal line.
  3. Set the Recurring Frequency (e.g. 1M for monthly) and the Posting Date to post from. Changing either recalculates the line's Next Posting Date, shown in the footer — use it to sanity-check the schedule before posting.
  4. Optionally set an Expiration Date so the recurrence stops automatically rather than running indefinitely, and a Comment for context.
  5. Post the journal when ready. New lines are always created as fixed recurring entries — there's no one-off mode on this journal, use the regular Absence Journal for a single adjustment.

Ledger Entries

Same as the regular journal — use Ledger Entries to see everything this recurring line has posted historically.
