Description
Previously, the leave sets that belong to a leave type could only be created at the country, employment type and payee level. In the 11.37 this release, additional leave set hierarchy levels have been added so that a leave set can be assigned to any of the following hierarchy levels:

The Parent Client, Client and Cost Centre options are unavailable if the Is For Payout, Transfer, Reset or Termination Only flag is ticked on the leave set. For more information, see Payout, Transfer, Reset & Termination Only Leave Sets. |
Benefits
This enhancement provides for greater flexibility in the configuration of leave because a single leave type can now cater for variations in leave rules at any level of the FastTrack hierarchy.

Transfer rules, reset rules and deduction rules for payouts and terminations cannot be created for leave sets that are linked to the Parent Client, Client or Cost Centre hierarchy level. This is because leave accrual transfers, leave accrual or entitlement balance resets and manual leave payouts that are triggered at the Leave Payments and Termination pay batch stages are not job-related transactions and therefore have no link to a parent, client or cost centre.
Leave sets that are linked to the Parent Client, Client or Cost Centre hierarchy level can only be used to define the rules for leave that is submitted via an absence item on a timesheet and not for leave requests that are submitted directly through the Leave module. When a leave request is submitted through the Leave module there is no link between the leave and a job and therefore there is nothing to link the leave to a leave set at the Parent Client, Client or Cost Centre level of the leave set hierarchy.
Similarly, accrual rules that are configured to be triggered by the leave service, as opposed to by processing a pay batch, cannot be triggered if they are configured on a leave set that is assigned to the Parent Client, Client or Cost Centre hierarchy level.
