5. However, when terminating user on 31/01/2017, the Annual Leave Entitlement is 1.5, which is incorrect, since as per termination rule it should have posted 2 days.

Cause

 This is an expected behavior, working as per system design.

Resolution

The Accrual frequency is monthly, so when terminating an employee in the month of Jan 2017, his termination period is from 1st Jan 2017 to 31st Jan 2017 i.e termination rule will trigger only if the effective termination date falls in this period.

Scenario 1

When you terminate an employee on 30th Jan 2017, the effective date of termination is 31st Jan 2017, which is within the termination period (1st Jan 2017 to 31st Jan 2017). Therefore the termination rule will trigger.

Scenario 2

When you terminate an employee with last working day = 31st Jan 2017, the effective date of termination is 1st Feb 2017, which is outside the termination period (1st Jan 2017 to 31st Jan 2017).

The January accrual period is fully completed with working days, as the employee stays the whole month within the company. Therefore no termination processing is necessary for this period and termination rule will not be called.
