Time-Off Accrual Rule Audit Agent
Balances that match policy for the sampled people and rule fixes that hold across everyone on the same rule
What it does
A balance that is two days off becomes a payroll or morale issue. This agent samples employees across countries, tenure bands and employment types, and recalculates each person's time-off balance from the written policy: accrual rates, carryover, caps and leave taken. It compares the result with the HR system's balance. For each difference, it traces whether the cause is a rule set up wrongly, a data problem such as a wrong start date, or a manual adjustment. It proposes a fix for the rule or the record and rechecks the sample after each fix. If the rule is the problem, it checks everyone under that rule. HR approves balance corrections. Edge case: a person who changed country mid-year is checked against both countries' rules for the right period.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
Read the steps as a list
- Quarterly audit starts
- Select a sample across countries, tenure and employment types
- Recalculate each balance from policy and leave history
- Compare with the system balance
- Is each difference under half a day?If not: trace the difference to a rule, a data issue or a manual adjustment. Back to step 3.
- Propose a fix to the rule or the record
- Apply the fix to a test copy and recalculate the sample
- Do all sample balances now match?If not: revise the fix and recalculate. Back to step 6.
- Check everyone under the same rule
- HR approves balance correctionsThe agent waits here for your OK.

How it decides
A difference over half a day is investigated. If more than 3 people under one rule differ, the rule is checked for everyone.
- Investigate any difference of half a day or more
- Check a whole rule group when 3 or more people differ
- Treat manual adjustments without a note as unexplained
- Sample at least 5 percent of staff in each country
