Create an Allowance Request

Use these steps to create an allowance request.

To create an allowance request:

1. Go to Absence workspace > Allowance Requests tab.
2. Click + New Allowance Request.
3. In the Entry Date field, specify the date from which you would like the allowance to be available.
   Note: Allowance is valid only within the period from Entry Date to the Valid Till date, which is set by the absence approver. The granted time cannot be booked before or after that period.
4. In the Absence Type field, select an absence type from the drop-down list.
5. In the Time Unit field, select the time unit you want to use.
   You can only specify hours as the time unit if you are running Maconomy 2.4 GA (or later) in the backend.
6. In the Time Registered field, enter the number of days (or hours) you want to add to your allowance.
7. In the Reason field, enter the reason for your request or provide relevant comments.
8. Click Save.
   Maconomy displays your allowance request as a line in the Allowance Requests tab. You can then edit, submit, or delete your allowance request.
