Configure a Call Off Cut Off Rule for ESS

Marina Farazi
  • Updated

This feature allows users to define how far into the future employees are able to request a call off.

Note: Rule changes and new rules will not be applied to employees currently 
logged into Indeavor. In order for the rule to take affect, the employee must 
log out of Indeavor and log back in.

Create a Configuration Profile

1. Click on the Administration icon cogwheelceptionblue.png. 
2. Select the ESS Cut Off Rules option from the Settings section. 
3. Press the New button.
4. Enter a Title for the Cut Off Configuration.
5. From the Scope drop-down downarrowblue.png, select the desired scope for the Configuration.
6. Press the Save button.

Add a Rule

1. From the ESS Cut Off Rules drop-down menu downarrowblue.png, select the Configuration.
2. Press the Add rule button.
3. Enter a Title for the rule.
4. From the Type drop-down menu downarrowblue.png, select Call Off.
5. Use the drop-down menus downarrowblue.png to select the desired Employee filters. These define which employees the Cut Off rule will affect.  
6. In the Leave filters section, select the desired Leave Types and Days from the respective drop-downs.
7. Set the Window Type using the provided fields.

Notes: 

Opening Window:This type of window defines when employees can perform a certain 
action for a defined period type (based on evaluation context). All other 
periods are considered to be closed and not available to perform the action.

Closing Window:This type of window defines when employees cannot perform a 
certain action for a defined period type (based on evaluation context). All 
other periods are considered to be opened and available to perform the action.

8. From the Evaluation Context drop-down menu downarrowblue.png select the desired value based on which the cut off rules will be evaluated.

Notes: Evaluation Context defines what you will be allowed to select within the 
Start of Window or End of Window.

On day: Enables a daily request call off window.
On week: Enables a weekly request call off window.
On weekend: Enables a weekend request call off window.

9. To set values other than the pre-selected options, check Set the start window or Set the end of window to select from more options.

Note: The user can edit both Start of Window and End of Window. It means the 
user can change the date in between the beginning of the End of Window to the 
date before the Start of Window (the End of Window should be set less than the
Start of Window).

Example:

The employees can make a call off request after 3 days (end of window) but before
5 days (start of window). Suppose, today is 5th of the month - the employees 
therefore can make a leave request in 9th and 10th of that month.

10. Press the Save button.
11. You can then access the Access Configuration through the ESS Cut Off Rules drop-down menu downarrowblue.png, by selecting the desired Configuration Profile.
