FDX - Reserve Line Reconstruction

FDX - Reserve Line Reconstruction
If you have vacation that doesn't touch the same number of R days, I know that additional R days are removed. I also know you can submit a reserve line reconstruction worksheet. Question...are those days requested to be removed mandatory or optional for schedules?

If you're asking if they have to remove the specific R-days you request on your worksheet? No. As I understand it, the inputs you put in for reconstruction are "preferences" (that's the way they are referenced in the CBA). So, most likely they'll remove the R-days that work best for them. They attempt to retain the max number of your original R-days.
Is that really what you want for December? A one for one R-day:Vaca ratio with minimal vacation bank usage? No desire to use vacation extension?

They will remove enough R-days so that your vacation days + R-days = 19 (for December). Basically making sure you get a one for one trade - one vacation day for one R-day. That part is mandatory - they have to remove enough R-days to ensure you're not taking vacation on days off.

Yes, I was asking mainly about the days requested to dropped, whether they were optional. I figured that was the case. I could only find a reference to the reconstruction worksheet but no real guidance on filling it out or how it is processed.
As far as extension, conflict input window says I can only extend 1 day which I plan to do.

(V-days x 6 + 6CH) ÷ R-day CH value (round down) minus V-days in the month. That gives you # of days of extension available.
So, in your case 24 ÷ 4.9 = 4 - 3 = 1 day of extension available. I don't know if it's a factor as well, but remember you'll have a 48 hour buffer after the extended day (unless you waive it). So, if you have R-days starting on the first day of the month, the 3 under your vaca are gone plus the next three (1 extension plus buffer). If no R-days are close enough to the vaca to be involved, then you just knock out 4 days total with the extension.

That makes sense then. Originally I assumed you had at least 7 days of vaca.
(V-days x 6 + 6CH) ÷ R-day CH value (round down) minus V-days in the month. That gives you # of days of extension available.

That's exactly what I plan to do. The 48 hr buffer knocks out one day and the one day extension knocks out another, so that gives a total of six R days removed and nine hours of make up in the view/add window.
Where do you find the formula for the extension? I couldn't find it in the contract.
Thanks for confirming all the other info. First time I've done this.

You obviously know your situation better than I. However, I think 6 days would be the max you could ever knock out in your scenario. 3 from the actual vaca, 1 from the extension and 2 from the buffer (assuming the buffer actually hits two R-days). How are you knocking out 6 if your buffer only knocks out 1?
9 hours of vacation m/u in view/add?
