Balance Validation

The balance to be deducted in the entire day scenario is influenced by any unpaid break time that is assigned to the employee on the day in question. Consider the following employee schedule:

0900-1200, WRK (regular)

1200-1300, BRK (unpaid)

1300-1700, WRK (regular)

In this case, the LTA created through the book-off process has a duration of 7 hours. As such, the number of hours to be deducted from any associated balance is 7 hours. If the projected balance, prior to this deduction, was less than 7 hours (and the minimum was set to 0), the book-off process would fail and an error would be displayed. A partial absence would not be created.
