Dear Community,

unfortunately I am back from my holiday to discover a change I really cannot comprehend.

In order for people to have access to certain absence policies (like parental leave or unpaid leave and others) I now have to set up an accrual policy and assign it to the respective employees retroactively? 
I am really struggling to see why this is necessary and thus a needed change? Furthermore, when trying to assign such a policy in bulk I can only set up as starting date the 1st of January 2024 and not the hire date? But when I open each individual profile then I can set the hire date as the starting date (which would make the most sense, because all periods before 1st of January 2024 will be then changed/will disapper).

I hope I am not the only one struggling with this and I am happy to hear any solutions around it!

Thanks & Best

Rali
