Allowance arrays define how entitlement increases over time.

The calculation method determines when this increase is applied.
Choose the correct calculation method
Extra allowance on anniversary date
Adds the extra entitlement on the userās exact anniversary date.
Gives the most precise result.
Full year not required
Applies the increase at the start of the year, even if the user hasnāt completed a full year.
More generous to users.
Full year required
Only applies the increase after a full year is completed.
More restrictive and delays entitlement.
Proportionate mix
Splits the year between old and new entitlement.
Creates a blended allowance for the year.
š¤ Tip: This method provides the most balanced calculation.
Conditional extra allowance (leaver check)
Applies the increase early in the year.
Reverts it if the user leaves before their anniversary date.
Understand when to use each method
Use anniversary date for precise entitlement tracking.
Use full year not required for simplicity and generosity.
Use full year required for strict policy control.
Use proportionate mix for fairness across partial years.
