ROSTER-LEVEL BALANCE VISIBILITY

One of the key outputs of the balance period logic is direct balance visibility on the roster.

What Is Visible on the Roster

Depending on configuration, planners and managers can see:

  • Balance transferred from the previous period
  • Balance created in the current period
  • Balance carried forward to the next period
  • Paid balance for the current month
  • Aggregated paid balance for a longer period
  • Balance that must be settled due to balance period rules
  • Tracked paid overtime
  • Tracked compensatory overtime

All values are derived from balance period calculations and exposed through roster properties.
