The Time Off Report Explained

A recent update to Online Time Clock MTS added a useful report called the Time Off Report. There's a help topic explaining the Time Off Report but there's a couple of finer points to the report that I believe are worth further explanation here.

The report itself was designed to be the one source needed to keep track of all time off and accruals for employees. It displays all time off taken during the reporting period, this includes vacation time, sick time, PTO, and OTHER time. The display format for each time is identical to that on the Punchcard Report. The footer for each employee is significantly different to that usually seen on other Online Time Clock MTS reports. Let's take a look at each item in the footer individually:

FieldDescription
Vacation Time Taken (Report)The total vacation time taken during the report period.
Vacation Time Taken (All Time)The total vacation time taken by the employee.
Vacation Time Owing (Report)The vacation time owing to the employee at the end date of the report period.
Vacation Time Owing (Now)The vacation time owing on the day the report was run.
Sick Time Taken (Report)The total sick time taken during the report period.
Sick Time Taken (All Time)The total sick time taken by the employee.
Sick Time Owing (Report)The sick time owing to the employee at the end date of the report period.
Sick Time Owing (Now)The sick time owing on the day the report was run.
PTO Taken (Report)The total PTO (paid time off) taken during the report period.
Other Time Taken (Report)The total Other time taken during the report period.

As you can see the report contains all the information needed to be able to make decisions on the current state of play for employee accruals and time taken off.
