Last updated on AUGUST 10, 2017

Applies to:

Symptoms

Find that after upgrade from 12.0 to 12.1 self-service half absence functionality is no longer working as before

Find that the absence duration is not calculated correct when both below conditions apply:
1. if the flexfield context is not manually picked from LOV/dropdown
2. if the first segment 'part day unit of measure' is defaulted to DAYS and NOT displayed



What is Working

Selecting context "netherlands absence part day information' from the dropdown and it works fine or if the unit of measures segment is displayed (and defaulted) it also works fine

Steps to Reproduce:
Use responsibility : employee slf-service
Navigation :absence management : create absence

1. Enter absence date
2. Enter 0.5 for fraction of start date
3. Press calculated duration, duration calculates as 1 instead of 0.5
