hmmmm
I was talking my bud through this looking at his bid processing summary. He extended to 10 days. With the buffers, that resulted in 14 days affected by the vacation. On his summary calendar grid, he had "B" over the first two R-days removed as buffer days, "V" for the 7 vaca days, "X" on the next three R-days and "B" over the last two R-days.
He gets paid for 10 R-days (the 7 "V"s and 3 "X"s) and a total of 47:40 comes out of his vacation bank (10 x R-day value).
So, I don't see how he could get paid for 3 of the 4 Buffer days when the 3 "X" days indicating extension are clearly shown as different days from the buffers.
Maybe I'm not understanding what you're saying.
