Linked plans

A linked plan is an absence plan that is linked to a reserve or available balance in another plan. A linked plan is used to cover reported usage when the resource's plan balance is reduced to zero. When you define a link plan table to process the plan balances, you determine:

• The plan types or eligibility groups to link to and the order to process the plan balances that you have defined.
• The service code that will determine the pay code to use when creating time records for the link plan.
• Initial plan rules or link plan rules to use if a plan balance becomes negative after linking plans.
