Parental Leave - Australia

[crisdagosto]

Hi all,

this requirement is very common in Australia and I wonder if you could share your approaches to this one!

in Australia it is common practice for employees to combine different leave types to make up their Parental Leave,

e.g.

Cristiana wants to be on Parental Leave from 12 April 2021 to 17 Dec 2021

Cristiana wants to user her Annual Leave and LSL to make up the Parental Leave time:

…. Annual Leave from 12 April 2021 to 21 May 2021

…. LSL from 24 May 2021 to 27 Aug 2021

…. LWOP from 30 Aug 2021 to 17 Dec 2021

Is there any configuration that can be done in the system so the employee can enter the 4 leave types i.e. the overarching Parental Leave from 12 April 2021 to 17 Dec 2021 and then the split?

…. Parental Leave – 12 April to 17 Dec

…. Annual Leave - 12 April to 21 May

…. LSL - 24 May to 27 Aug

…. LWOP - 30 Aug to 17 Dec

Not sure if there is anything that can be configured in the Time Management (perhaps in the time type object? Time Management Collision?)

Have looked a blog about using Collision Grouping but can't seem to find detail information about it. It looks like I can use it but the Time Types would have to be using the same 'Unit' and I was not able to make it work if 'Duration Display According To' is set to Calendar Days.

We are using EC and ECP - have seen implementations where the employee submits the Parental Leave and Payroll then enters the split directly in ECP.

Has anyone successfully used Collision Groupings to fulfill the requirement above i.e. allow for the overlapping of time types. Likely that we would need to duplicate the time types (e.g. Annual Leave - Parental Leave: this one would have the Collision Grouping field populated) to prevent overlapping when one does not want to allow overlapping!

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide,

Kind regards

Cristiana
