To create a policy, name the policy on the top of the page. Employees will see the name of the policy and the type when they request time off.
What employees see:
Policies with an upfront balance will be prorated for employees if they start mid-year. The calculation is based on the number of days the employee will work in the remaining calendar year.
Example:
CQL filters are dynamic, so as an employee's information changes, they may move into a different policy.
Examples:
- US Sick Time Policy applies to all employees whose home country is the United States: address.country:"us"Those employees will see the sick time policy on their profile tab once active.
- Employee moves to the UK- once the change is processed and their home address country is now “GB” the following happens:
- If there is a policy for GB that the employee fits in - the employees balance will now display in the corresponding policy
- If the new policy has an upfront balance, the employees balance will reflect the following: The set starting balance - days taken this calendar year.
You can specify holidays that are exempt from a policy. These days will be skipped over when detracting days taken from a balance.
Weekend days are automatically exempt from balances.
The approver for a policy can be the requester’s manager, grand manager, or a set person in the organization.
A policy defaults to inactive. When you are ready for employees to be able to request against their balance, you can make the policy active.
If a policy is active and is made inactive, the history of the requests made and taken will stay in the employees profile tab. Their balance will no longer display on their profile tab, and they will no longer be able to request against that policy.
Balances on the employees profile tab reflect days that have been requested and approved. Days that are in a pending request are not deducted from the balance.
If you transition to ChartHop for time off mid year, you can manually adjust employee balances to ensure they are requesting against the current value.
To adjust a balance, you can change the value in the “modified” column next to the employee's name in the “Balances” tab. Once a balance is edited, the cell will turn blue to indicate the value has been changed.
When a balance is changed, previous requests for the calendar year are no longer deducted from the balance. Only future requests will be deducted.
If an approver is not available for a period of time, you can reassign the approver for individual requests. Navigate to the employee’s profile page, and check the box next to the request you want to reassign. Click “Reassign”, and you can choose a different approver. The new approver will get an email notification and the task will display on their home page.
