The seniority of the employee is checked using the hiring date in the system .

However, if you want to use a different entry date for considering another seniority and, in this way, changing the vacation entitlement, you can use the Date data (0041).

To change the vacation seniority you set the new date in the Date data infotype (0041), as a technical entry date (01).

The Time evaluation program (RPTIME00) then evaluates the technical entry date from the Date data infotype (0041), checks the absences quota according to this date, and reads the Quotas correction infotype (2013) to determine if there are any additional absences.

For more details about absence quotas, see 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.
