Leave request settings

You can customise specific options for leave requests submitted by employees

 

 

 

Allow leave requests beyond the remaining balance

Step 1 - Go to Leave > Settings

Step 2 - Select leave type

Step 3 - Look for the "Customise leave requests" section

Step 4 - Click on "Edit"

Step 5 - Toggle on to allow leave request beyond remaining balance/Toggle off to disable the setting, which will prevent employees from requesting leave when they have insufficient balance 

Step 6 - Click on "Save"

Note:

  • Each of the leave types will require separate leave advanced settings
  • When the toggle “Allow leave request beyond remaining balance” is off, employees can still proceed to apply for leave in past/future cycle even if they have insufficient balance in the current leave cycle. For example:
  • Current cycle: 2024-01-01 ~ 2024-12-31
    • The employee has 2 days of leave balance in the current leave cycle
  • Employee requests for leave
    • Leave request: 2023-12-28(Thu) ~ 2024-01-02(Tue), total of 4 days
    • 2 days from past cycle
    • 2 days from current cycle
  • The system will reflect that the employee have 0 days entitlement for the current leave cycle
