University Level Rules: Fields

Default Field Label

Description

Leave types impacting scholarship calculation

Indicates the types of leave that may change the scholarship benefits provided to the recipient

You can tick one or more checkboxes.

If ticked, any change to the selected leave type will trigger a re-calculation of benefits based on eligibility criteria defined for the scholarship.

Source

Note The checkbox list displayed in this page is based on the Leave Types > Standard category, but it is static. The list does not change if a particular leave category item is changed to non-current. If a leave category item is changed to be non-current and then also un-selected in this SMPT rules page, any in-progress leave applications will be processed without any re-calculation. If it remains selected in this page, any in-progress applications will be processed, however no new applications can be created with the leave category item as it has become non-current.
