Processing of standard vacations

Use

You enter Standard vacations in the system using the Absences infotype (2001), Vacations subtype (0100).

Integration

As the employee receives payment for these vacations, their vacation entitlement simultaneously decrease. This is displayed in the vacations quota in the Vacation quota infotype (2006). Once the corresponding vacations quota has been taken, no more vacations can be entered into the Absences infotype (2001).

Functional features

In the standard SAP R/3 system the operation of the Absences quota infotype (2006) is automatic; that is, on entering vacations in the Absences infotype (2001) and running them, the system discounts these vacations automatically from the Absences quota infotype (2006).

Activities

Before entering vacations using the Absences infotype (2001), you must generate the vacation quotas. To do this, you must define the settings indicated in the implementation guide, in the section Payroll Argentina ® Global settings ® Payroll organization ® Maintain evaluation times schema for vacations quota.

In the standard SAP R/3 system, the vacation quotas are set according to the country-specific of legislation.

This setting can be displayed and eventually changed using the implementation guide, in the section Time data recording and administration ® Managing time accounts with attendance/absence quotas ® Calculating absence quota entitlements ® Rules for generating absence quotas ® Define generation rules for quota selection.

The user can also change this standard setting for a specific employee. This is done by manually changing the run date in the Absence quota infotype (2006) for the corresponding employee.

The statutory vacation period (from 1 October to 30 April) is registered within the system. This setting can be displayed and eventually changed using the implementation guide, in the section Time data recording and administration ® Managing time accounts with attendance/absence quotas ® Calculating absence quota entitlements ® Rules for generating absence quotas ® Set base entitlements.

If you try to enter in the Absences infotype (2001) vacations outside this set vacation period, the system displays an error message.
