Configure leave policies & accrual

Define leave types, balances, accrual rules and the sandwich/overlap behaviour.


Leave policies decide how much leave employees get and how it behaves.

Set up policies

  1. 1Go to App โ†’ Leave โ†’ Policies.
  2. 2Create leave types (Earned, Casual, Sick, etc.) with opening balances and accrual rules.
  3. 3Configure behaviour: overlap prevention, sandwich-leave treatment of weekends/holidays, and whether a type allows half-days.
  4. 4Set up comp-off so approved extra hours convert to leave instead of pay.

How balances are used

  • Employees apply against their balance; managers approve.
  • Loss-of-pay leave flows straight into the payroll run as LOP days.

Tip: Use the team calendar to spot clashes before approving โ€” see *Approve requests*.
