Yes, the Arrear Period allows selecting a specific range of months, so a company is not required to calculate the entire pending arrear period in one go.
Some organisations prefer calculating arrears in smaller batches rather than all at once, especially when reviewing or approving large arrear amounts in stages, or when only partial data is available for the full pending period at the time of calculation.
Consider an employee whose appraisal is effective from April, but the appraisal was triggered in July. This means arrears are pending for April, May, and June.
Instead of calculating arrears for all three months together, the company can choose to calculate arrears for only April and May now, by setting the Arrear Period to April to May. The remaining June arrear can then be calculated in a separate session at a later date, by setting the Arrear Period to June when ready.
