Leave Settings
The leave setting was managed by the admin user only. This setting will be used throughout the whole plugin system.
To access this setting, go to the Settings tab → then navigate to Leaves
There are two use cases applied for this setting:
1. Enable Leave Approval Workflow
Step 1: In the Leave settings section, check the box labeled Enable leave approval workflow. This ensures that all leave requests will follow an approval process.
Step 2: Configuring Default Allocation:
Enter the default number of Allocation Days: This specifies the default annual leave entitlement for users.
Enable ‘Allow accumulation’: When enabled, unused vacation days will carry over to the next year, allowing employees to accumulate time off.
Step 3: Configuring Other Leave Allocations:
In the Other allocations section, click on Add new to configure additional leave types for specific users.
Then you can specify different allocation days and assign them to specific resources:
To modify or remove an allocation, use the edit and delete icons next to each allocation entry.
2. Disable Leave Approval Workflow
Once you uncheck the box labeled Enable leave approval workflow. This action will remove the requirement for leave requests to go through an approval process.
