With the button Update paid days and contractual working hours you can directly recalculate and update the vacation days and average contractual working hours for a separate employee who has an annual leave agreement with coinciding begin accruing annual leave/withdrawal year. This is useful, for example, when you onboard a new employee or enter an end date for someone leaving.

If you want to update vacation days and contractual working hours for all employees with the current qualifying period, you can use one of the following methods:
- Manual updating: Go to Administration > Service routines > Update vacation days and employment rate. You can also go to this view if you want to see what has been updated automatically during payroll run settlement.
- Automatic updating: Activate automatic calculation in conjunction with payroll run settlement under Administration > Settings > Payroll > Payroll runs, Automation tab.

Updates to vacation days in the Employee register are not automatically transferred to Balances in Time. Automatic transfer of balances occurs only during payroll run settlement for the balances that have been linked under Administration > Settings > Payroll > Payroll runs, Balance export tab.
