The idea is that user 'joe' gets an allowance of 200 hours holiday on 1-Jan-2008, then again another 200 on 1-Jan-2009. Glidetime “allowance” would be negative, ie. 'joe' had 150 hours paid out (in salary) on 1-Jun-2008, therefore he gets -150 on this date to his glidetime balance.
The earliest dated entry for a user is used internally to indicate his/her start date in a company when calculating balances.
