Leave Types

The Leave Types settings page lets you configure the types of leave available to employees. Navigate to Settings > Leave Types to access it.

Viewing Leave Types

View all configured leave types. Each type appears when employees request leave.

Creating a Leave Type

When creating a leave type, specify:

• Name (e.g., Annual Leave, Sick Leave, Personal Day)
• Paid or unpaid
• Requires approval (yes or no)

Leave types that require approval will appear in the Approvals queue for managers to review.

Examples

Common leave types include:

• Annual Leave — Paid, requires approval
• Sick Leave — Paid, may or may not require approval
• Personal Day — Paid or unpaid
• Unpaid Leave — Unpaid, requires approval

Editing and Deleting

Edit or delete leave types as needed. Delete only if no leave requests have been submitted using that type; otherwise, consider marking it inactive instead.

Leave Balances

Leave balances are tracked per leave type per employee. When configuring leave types, ensure they align with how you want balances managed (e.g., annual allowance for Annual Leave).
