How to create Absence journals in AX 2009

Hi,

Am using AX VPC 3.5. Am not able to create absence journals.

In ESS, I created absence request and when I logged in as manager to approve, an error saying “no open absence journals”. In thick client, I have given end date in Human Resources > Periodic > Mass creation > Create absence journals. But nothing is happening. Did i missed anything. Please help me on this.

Thanks in advance,

Pavan
