Information in this document applies to any platform.

GOAL

It was configured the Absence Recordings DFF (ANC_PER_ABS_ENTRIES_DFF) and defined

Context sensitive segments to capture absence entry values.
How can use this DFF in an Absence Fast Formula?

The following formula has compilation errors:

VALID = 'N'
ERROR_MESSAGE = 'The value of attribute 1 is : ' ||
TO_CHAR(ANC_ABS_ENTRS_ATTRIBUTE1)
RETURN VALID,ERROR_MESSAGE

SOLUTION

 Please try using IV_ATTRIBUTE_1 instead ANC_ABS_ENTRS_ATTRIBUTE1.

Information in this document applies to any platform.

GOAL

The user is trying to use a Descriptive Flex Field (DFF) in Fast Formula, however, the system is
not receiving any value. It is literally receiving NULL, please assist on what is missing?

The system gives a value for DFF IV_ATTRIBUTE_1 but not for IV_ATTRIBUTE_10. nor any
higher.

SOLUTION

For the below DFF input variables you can extend only up to 5 (not more than that) so
IV_ATTRIBUTE_10 will not work.

IV_ATTRIBUTE_1,IV_ATTRIBUTE_2....IV_ATTRIBUTE_5
IV_ATTRIBUTE_NUMBER1,IV_ATTRIBUTE_NUMBER2....IV_ATTRIBUTE_NUMBER5
IV_ATTRIBUTE_DATE1,IV_ATTRIBUTE_DATE2,.....IV_ATTRIBUTE_DATE5
This is the current design of the system.

Instead, you can use the below Array based INPUT value approach.

IV_ATTRIBUTE_ARR
IV_ATTRIBUTE_ARR[1] holds the value of segment ATTRIBUTE1 in
ANC_PER_ABS_ENTRIES table you can go up to 30 IV_ATTRIBUTE_ARR[2]......
IV_ATTRIBUTE_ARR[30]

IV_ATTRIBUTE_NUMBER_ARR
IV_ATTRIBUTE_NUMBER_ARR[1] holds the value of segment ATTRIBUTE_NUMBER1 in
ANC_PER_ABS_ENTRIES table you can go up to 30
IV_ATTRIBUTE_NUMBER_ARR[2] .....IV_ATTRIBUTE_NUMBER_ARR[30]

IV_ATTRIBUTE_DATE_ARR
IV_ATTRIBUTE_DATE_ARR[1] holds the value of segment ATTRIBUTE_DATE1 in
ANC_PER_ABS_ENTRIES table you can go up to 30 IV_ATTRIBUTE_DATE_ARR[1] ....
IV_ATTRIBUTE_DATE_ARR[30]

There is the need to call DATA TYPE.

GOAL

How to calculate the Absence Duration in a fast formula Global Absence Entry Validation?

IV_TOTAL_DURATION (parameter to Global Absence Entry Validation formula) is not

fetching any result.

Example:
Employee has 240 hr balance , and s/he is submitting 40 hrs PTO.
Current balance = 240-40 = 200
IV_TOTAL _DURATION input parameter doesn't return any values

SOLUTION

In the Fast Formula definition, use IV_TOTAL rather than IV_TOTAL_DURATION.
