LP03


LP03.1 - Service Rule



Use Service Rule (LP03.1) to define the service begin date for each
employee plan master record.
The service begin date is the starting point from which length of service
for accruals, allotment, and other calculations is obtained.



**Processing Effect

A waiting period on the service rule impacts the date from which length
of service is determined. If you need a waiting period before accrual begins
without affecting length of service, you can set the waiting period on Accrual
Rule (LP03.2) instead of LP03.1.
Waiting periods have a separate start date in case the length of service
is to be started from one date (such as current seniority date) but the
waiting
period is to be started from a different date (such as hire date). For
example,
a your organization's pay plan might specify that length of service starts
on the employee's seniority date or 2 months after hire, whichever is later.
A date flag is also available so that when a waiting period is applied from
a date different than the requirement date, you can control whether the
earlier
or later of the resulting dates (requirement date OR waiting period start
date + waiting period) is used to set the service begin date.

LP03.2 - Accrual Rule



Use Accrual Rule (LP03.2) to define the accrual and allotment rules
for each employee accrual record. Accruals are calculated over time, whereas
allotments are calculated up front, and may or may not be adjusted over time.
An accrual rule may have just an accrual, just an allotment, or both.



**Processing Effect



NOTE  Hours and earnings tables work independently, even if they are
defined on the same rule. Hours tables control the accumulation of time into
hours balances, and earnings tables control the accumulation of money into
earnings balances.

LP03.4 - Limit Rule



    Use Limit Rule (LP03.4) to define maximums for ongoing balance, annual
accrual, and carryover amounts. Limit Rules also define when accrual totals
are reset, and if the carryover amount is available for a limited period of
time (carryover period).
    A plan structure must have an annual reset point or date to determine
when totals are reset, but maximums are optional. The ongoing balance limit
has an additional option (balance limit type) to check maximums by plan, plan
/ employee group, plan / employee group / position, or plan category.
