Up until now you can specify the maximum allowed days to carry forwards as well as a deadline or timeframe to use up any carried-forwards days. When you request vacation before this deadline carried forward days are always consumed first. Now we have introduced a “carry forwards ratio” on request from one client, so you can for example carry forward 50% of the employee’s current balance at the end of your vacation year. Years of service for calculation of varying entitlements is now based on start date + minimum service period required before accruing vacation (typically probation time)
