Support for dollar-based budgets with Auto-Assignment Schedule to Budget rule

The Schedule to Budget rule in Auto-Assignment has been updated to support budgets in dollar, or other currency, amounts. This rule now supports location budgets using all budget types supported in LFSO.

By default, dollar-based budgets are converted to hours based on average hourly rates for the purpose of adjusting staffing requirements. Customers using Auto-Assignment can continue to use a custom algorithm to convert budget amounts to hours. The registry parameter AA_BUDGET_ADJUSTED_WORKLOAD_USE_CALLOUT enables or disables the custom algorithm callout for the Schedule to Budget rule.

See "Using Schedule to Budget with dollar amounts" in the Infor Workforce Management Auto-Assignment Implementation Guide.

Use of average hourly rates in Auto-Assignment budget rules

The algorithm used by Auto-Assignment to estimate schedule costs when using budget rules has been updated. The hourly rate for salaried and non-salaried employees is now determined by the Average Hourly Rate (AHR) of the employee's preferred job. If the AHR for the employee's preferred job is zero or null, the employee's base rate is used.
