HCM (Human Capital Management, Payroll)

Hello All, I have noticed that when using the drag-and-drop feature in Aurena, the changes are not properly reflected in IEE until after a period of time. I have not seen any documentation, but I am assuming there is a routine/background job that runs to update them. Is that correct? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. 

Hi All, What’s the difference between “Reject” and “Cancel” status when it come to Absence Requests?  Regards,Nuwanthika 

We schedule this background job to run after a cutoff time for all managers to authorize their employees’ time for the week.  For some employees, who work two different jobs in a single day, a second interval is entered on the time card by the manager and then authorized (sometimes right before the reconcile).  After the reconciliation job runs, the days on which the manager entered a second interval get reverted back to ‘Calculated’.  Does anyone know why that happens and is there any way to prevent that?

Hi all, I am trying to restrict access to certain contribution elements in payroll for a group of users (IFS10). I have created an access group ‘HR’ and for this group only added the contributions they should see and granted access to those elements. I have allocated the person IDs in the group but yet the users can see all elements recorded in Payroll Information.  Am I missing something or is there a bug here?thanks, Mirjam

Hi,We are currently building an Employee Survey to canvas all employees, but it seems the Survey requires a User Account for answers to be provided. Is there a method that employees without a user account (Shop Floor Employees) are able to complete the survey on an SFDC machine and it be completed multiple times on the same user profile? ThanksBen

In our system, we have some users that will work in other organization codes when they have done everything they can in their default. This happens at the end of the week. When the users enter in their, all goes well on the result page, except when they reach overtime. Then the result comes in with their default organization code. Is there a place in IFS to make it so over time’s code is the org code they are clocked in as at that time? We try to just change the result but it says you can’t change entry’s that are  balance types.

Hello,  We have a new layer system with us and we are not quite able to cope with that at IFS. We have two layers that are identical of time: Overtime layer (overtime outside the contract)Bring-in layer (each employee has to do it 9 times a year in order to get to his hours a year. This shift is planned for each employee at the beginning of the year for the whole year)Since they are identical, we cannot use them in the Automatic layer Change. When we then change the layer from the employee Manual to the input layer (which is done at the beginning of the year for all employees and all input shifts), it is automatically changed back to the overtime layer.  So we always have to change it afterwards, which is too much effort. Does anyone have a similar situation here and can help?

I want to terminate employees through a API call, when the employee is offboarded in our HR system (which is not IFS).I have found one API that looked interesting: TerminateEmploymentHandling.svc/TerminateEmploymentsThis however does not seem to actual trigger a termination.Any idea on how to do this? Best regards,/Magnus
