Set Up Time Off Types

You can create and manage different time-off types to fit your company’s policies. These types define how employees request and track their time off, such as vacation, sick days, or jury duty.

Add a new time-off type

1. Go to Global Settings > Time Off > Time Off Types.

2. Click the three dots > Add.

3. Enter the details for the new time-off type:    

   • Name: The name of the time-off type (e.g., Vacation, Jury Duty).

   • Code: A unique identifier for reporting and tracking.

   • Balance Type: Select how the hours will be handled.

     • Balance is tracked: Employees have a set number of hours (e.g., vacation, sick) that are deducted with each use.

     • Balance is not tracked: Employees have no set number of hours (e.g., jury duty, appointments).

     • Unawarded hours: Employees are eligible for hours but have not yet received or used them.

     • Comp Time Off: Overtime hours can be converted into paid time off as compensatory time.

   • Description: (Optional) Add details about when and how this time-off type is used.

4. Click Save.
   

5. Once saved, the new time-off type appears in the Time Off Types list. From here, you can add more types, edit existing ones, or archive them if no longer needed.
