Enable or Disable Employees

A setting must be enabled in UKG Pro in order for an employee to use the Time Off feature. The setting is on the Time Off and Allowances page of the Add Employee work event or the employee’s Time Off page.

The Time Off Enabled option dictates whether the employee has access to Time Off. This option prevents extra records from being created for reporting. If the employee has been assigned a manager role but does not have this option set to Yes, then a manager record is not created. This action means that any employee under the manager with Time Off enabled will not have a team in Time Off.

Navigation: Menu > My Team > select employee > Workforce Management Classic tab > Time Off

  1. From the Time Off page, select the Edit icon.
  2. Select Enabled to enable Time Off for this employee.
  3. Select the employee’s security role(s) (Admin, Employee, or Manager) and the effective date.
  4. Select the policy group. A policy group is a bundle of time off policies that are combined together and assigned to an employee. It determines how accruals, usages, balances, and carryover amounts are applied to an employee's time off information.
  5. Select the holiday calendar and the effective date.
  6. Enter the employee default for the number of hours per day (for example, 8 hours for regular full-time employees) and the effective date. This amount is used to convert days when a policy is tracked in days instead of hours.
  7. Select the time zone, which is primarily used for time clock punch transactions, and the effective date.
  8. Select the ACA pay type and the effective date. (This applies to those companies who are required by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services [CMS] to electronically submit staffing and census information to promote greater accountability for long-term health facilities.)
  9. Select how the individual should receive Time Off notifications (via email, in the application, both email and in the application, or none). This can be changed later in Time Off on the employee detail page (My Team > Time Off > My Team > select employee > Employee Preferences tab).
