In this step, you assign quota deduction rules to counting rules. All absences and attendances with quota deduction that are counted using the selected counting rule are processed using these deduction rules.

As well as a deduction rule for deducting the employee's quotas with an entitlement greater than 0, you can also specify a deduction rule for all quota types for which the corresponding infotype records can be deducted over and above the entitlement.

Note: You can define your own deduction rules for quota deduction over and above the entitlement. You can also use the existing deduction rules twice.
If you specify the same deduction rule for deduction until the quota is used up and deduction over and above the entitlement, the system proceeds as follows:
First, all the employee's quotas are deducted in full. Next, the quotas that allow deduction over and above the entitlement are used up.
To make a deduction over and above the entitlement, the employee must have at least one quota within the validity period with a quota type that has a negative lower deduction limit.

Note: If the Quota deduction field is selected for an attendance or absence type but no deduction rule is specified, no time quota is deducted for the employee. You can see this by the fact that the Quota used field is not shown on the entry screen.

Example

  1. Using the same deduction rule for deduction over and above the entitlement

    According to a company agreement, employees are to receive time in lieu of overtime. The relevant absence quota type, Time off entitlement is generated in time evaluation.
    Regardless of the accrued entitlement, employees should be allowed to take at least one day off in lieu (this has to be approved).
    Define the absenc quota type Time off entitlement with a limit of -1 for a negative deduction. Then define a deduction rule that controls the deduction of quotas over and above the entitlement. In this rule, enter the quota type Time off entitlement as the first quota to be deducted.
    You enter the relevant deduction rule in the Over entitlement field under Attendance quotas.
  2. Using a special deduction rule for deduction over and above the entitlement

    Your employees are entitled to 20 days paid sick leave. All illness- related absences longer than 20 days are not paid.
    You define two absence quota types:
    • Once for paid sick leave with an entitlement of 20 days
    • One for unpaid sick leave with an unlimited entitlement

      You define a deduction rule and assign it to the relevant fields in the counting rule. You also customize Absence Valuation to suit your requirements (see Valuation of Absences with Quota Deduction).

Requirements

You have created the counting rules in the Define counting rules step.

You have created the deduction rules in the Define deduction rules for absence and attendance quotas step.

Activities

To get a better overview, you can access a view cluster in this step. This allows you to check the entries you have made so far.

  1. Call the Counting Rule view. To do this, choose Counting rule under Navigation.
  2. Choose the required counting rule.
  3. Under Quota deduction, enter the deduction rule that applies until the employee's quota entitlements have been used up.
  4. If required, enter the deduction rule for the absence and attendance quota types that can be deducted over and above the entitlement.
    The deduction rules in the Within entitlement and Over entitlement fields must deduct absence and attendance quotas using the same time unit. This applies to all sequential numbers of a counting rule.
    The deduction rules for absence and attendance quotas can deduct in different time units.
