Available Balance

An available balance is commonly used to track the amount of sick pay that is usable by an employee.

To define an available sick balance:

  1. Go to Pay Setup > Balances.
  2. In the Balances tab, click Add.
  3. Enter a name and a description for the new balance.
  4. In the Options section, select the unit your organization uses to measure the balance in the Units drop-down list.
  5. In the Pay Adjustments section, select the pay codes that you want to link to the sick balance.
  6. Note: You can assign more than one pay code to any balance. Dayforce deducts the balance equally for each occurrence of the different pay codes.
  7. Click Save.
