A temporary table is created listing all the employees of the department.
The first step is to set the type of absence for each absent employee.

8. Set the Number of Time-Off Hours
When the temporary table is created, Time-Off hours are set to 8.00.

If the employee is entitled to be credited with 8.00 time-off hours you just have to set the type of absence.

9. Set Time-Off Hours and Work Hours

In the example, the employee became sick and went home early.
The employee is credited with 6.25 Time-Off hours and 1.75 Work Hours.
