 Chapter 43: Fast Formula for Attendance-Based Bonus Calculation


Overview:

This formula calculates a bonus based on an employee’s attendance, often used in manufacturing and service sectors. The bonus is awarded only if the employee maintains a minimum threshold of present days in a given month.


Business Logic:

  • If attendance days ≥ threshold, bonus is applied.

  • Else, no bonus is given.


Inputs Required:

  • ATTENDANCE_DAYS: Number of days present

  • BONUS_AMOUNT: Fixed or variable amount

  • THRESHOLD_DAYS: Minimum days required for bonus eligibility


Sample Formula:


DEFAULT FOR ATTENDANCE_DAYS IS 0 DEFAULT FOR BONUS_AMOUNT IS 0 DEFAULT FOR THRESHOLD_DAYS IS 0 INPUTS ARE ATTENDANCE_DAYS, BONUS_AMOUNT, THRESHOLD_DAYS IF ATTENDANCE_DAYS >= THRESHOLD_DAYS THEN BONUS = BONUS_AMOUNT ELSE BONUS = 0 ENDIF RETURN BONUS

Use Case Example:

  • Employees with ≥ 26 working days in a 30-day month receive a ₹1000 bonus.


Best Practices:

  • Pull attendance from Oracle Time and Labor (OTL) or external interface.

  • Keep thresholds configurable via element inputs or user-defined tables.


Practice Quiz:

  1. What happens if an employee does not meet the threshold days?

  2. Can the threshold be customized per department?

  3. How to link OTL data to this formula?
