Workday Time

Is there a change to M&P Compensatory time?

Yes. M&P Compensatory time will no longer be used to track equivalent time off for hours worked on a holiday or recess day. M&Ps who work on a holiday or recess day should work with their supervisor to arrange equivalent time off prior to the end of the fiscal year. This equivalent time cannot be banked in Workday as M&Ps will not have timesheets.

Is there a change to the process for M&Ps to use PTO Max Extension?

M&Ps projected to have a PTO Max Extension balance can make a request prior to July 1 for use after July 1. M&Ps will no longer have to wait until July 1 to see and request use of that time.

Why do I see only a short list of time off types when making an absence request?

Time off types displayed are based on the specific employee's eligibility.

M&Ps are eligible for Sick, PTO, PTO Max Extension, and Flex
C&Ts are eligible for Sick, Vacation, Compensatory Time and – depending upon hire date – Personal, Bonus Vacation, and Floating Holiday
Staff members will also see, and be able to request, Jury Duty and Bereavement
Temporary employees are eligible for Connecticut Sick

Can we use the Absence Calendar for uses that are outside of our reporting structure (such as for a project)? Can it be used to track when employees are working at different locations on campus?

Not at this time – this is an enhancement that will be considered in the future.

How do I add time off to my timesheet?

Delete the time block on the timesheet, then submit a time off request using Request Absence. From the Enter Time screen, you can access the Request Absence shortcut in the Actions button drop-down menu.
