Andrew K 1.1 1 **Question:** Can an employee have a negative Available Hours balance?
2
3 **Answer:** When an employee requests more Vacation, Sick or Personal Time than they have available, it is __entirely up to the company__ whether **to allow employees to have a negative Available hours balance** and how many hours negative are allowed.
4
5 When processing payroll and an employee requests more hours than they have available, a __warning box__ will pop up with three selections:
6
7 * Selecting **"Allow Maximium"** will allow only the hours the employee currently has available.
8
9 * Selecting **"Allow"** will allow the hours entered and the employee will have a negative Available hours.
10
11 * Selecting **"Cancel"** resets the hours to **"0"**.
12
13 For employees allowed __negative Available Hours__, these **hours will be subtracted from future hours earned** until a negative balance no longer exists.
