Absence Entries

Absence entries are records used for keeping the balance of available and used absence days for each employee.

Each change in the balance is represented by its own absence entry, which makes it possible to track the whole history of events for every employee.

Absence entries are created automatically when absence or allowance requests are approved. They can also be created manually, and are created in an “unsubmitted” state and do not affect the employee’s balance until they are submitted and approved.

There are four types of absence entries: Allowance, Carry Forward, Absence and Allowance Request.

Use the Absence Entries sub-tab to create new absence entries of type Allowance. This either increases the employee’s balance (positive allowance) or decreases it (negative allowance). Allowance entries must be submitted and approved to take effect.
