Create customised absence types that are relevant to your company.
1. To start with, go to the System settings page - hover over the torso icon on the top right-hand corner, and choose System Settings.
2. Next, find the Absence Settings, then the Absence Types section and click on 'Add Type'.
3. In the window that opens you can name and customise the absence: choose the type (Absence, Sickness or Other), set whether it will be with Pay and set the minimum notice period. Once you have filled in the information please click on Save.
Type description:
Holiday - meant for an annual holiday that is taken from the holiday allowance
Sickness - meant for different types of sick leaves
Other - meant for all other absences that need to be tracked
Now that you have entered absence types into the system you and your staff can select them when creating new absences.
Good to know! Only absence types which are published will be seen for the employees within the Staff portal if they have an Employment Type for which absence tracking has been switched ON.
