Intro
Refer to the academic personnel manual policy, APM 740 Leaves of Absence/Sabbatical Leaves regarding policy information on sabbatical leaves of absence. The LSAB bundle includes the ELVE and the EAPP screen. Using this bundle will generate the appropriate action code for your transaction. Since no changes are made to the EAPP screen if the sabbatical is for 100% time, entry can be completed on the ELVE screen instead of using the bundle.
If the sabbatical leave is for less than 100% time, make sure you end the current distributions on the EAPP screen and add new distributions for the reduced percentage of time. Do not forget to return the academic appointee to 100% time upon completion of the leave. The return distributions should be entered at the same time as you are entering the leave.
NOTE: We no longer use the SLN or SLR DOS codes for a faculty member on sabbatical.
Leaves with Pay in Lieu of Sabbatical: Follow the instructions provided for sabbatical leaves when entering leaves with pay in lieu of sabbatical.
