What is the difference between the current, pending and available balance of my banked time off hours?

The time bank balance of an employee is segmented in 3 statuses:

  1. Current

  2. Pending

  3. Available

A) Current (the “checking account”)

The current balance in the amount currently in their bank. This does not consider any future scheduled time offs, which brings us to the next point!

B) Pending (the « credit card » balance to be paid)

The number of hours that are scheduled in the future but not yet actually taken and visible in the time sheets.

Available (the checking account minus the credit card)

This is the net value of the current value - the pending value. So the number of hours that can still be assigned considering what will be assigned in the future.

Example : An employee was given 80 hours in his "Vacation" time bank and already has 24 hours of time off assigned in the schedule in two weeks. We then obtain a distribution like so:

Before his time off

  1. Current balance: 80h

  2. Pending balance: 24h

  3. Available balance: 56h

And once the time off passed

  1. Current balance: 56h

  2. Pending balance: 0h

  3. Available balance: 56h
