Questions: 1 - Does there have to be positive staffing to use PB days? 2 - Are they processed on the 20th like the rest of July PCS or will they go as soon as I put them in? I don't see payback days on the list of PCS steps.
Thanks!
1. Not sure about the positive staffing, but it has to be approved by crew scheds via the PCS system.
2. Go to PCS-Leave Requests-Payback Days and select the bid period at the top of the screen. July usage won't be available until the schedule is released to DBSM. Enter it as a request and it will be processed.
