10. Accrual View This view displays a screen that shows balances for Compensatory Time, Sick Leave and Vacation Leave.

11. Accrual View ► Shows the type of leave being accrued. ► Shows the hours the employee has earned that are not yet available to use. These hours become available in the next pay period per DHHS policy. These are calculated as time is entered in Kronos. ► Shows the number of hours carried forward after the year-end accrual posting. The year-end accrual posting is done after the last pay date of the year.

12. Accrual View ► Shows the hours the employee has available to use in this accruing pay code since the year-end accrual posting. ► Shows the total number of hours in this pay code that the employee has left to use in the current pay period. (Carried Forward + Accrued Eligible - Hours Taken = Remaining Balance.) Comp time balances will not calculate real time. Balance will come from NIS after payroll. ► Shows the total number of hours that the employee has used since the year- end accrual posting.

13. Accrual View ► Shows the date on which the balances on this detail line are calculated. In other words, the values of the accrual fields on this date were used to calculate the balance that displays on this detail line. This is always going to default to the current date. ► Shows the tier the employee is on as of the date shown. The tier is automatically calculated based on your adjusted service date.

14. Now let’s move to the Timecard View.

15. Timecard View ► This view displays a screen that shows time records for the current pay period. This view also provides an option to view historical and future pay periods. Future pay periods can only be viewed if you have made entries for a future pay period. ► This screen will be blank until you have entered some type of time record.
