Why isn't leave being deducted from the allowance?
If a leave request is not reducing an employee’s allowance, the most common reason is a misconfiguration of the leave type settings.
In TimeOff, each leave type can be configured with one of the following options in relation to allowance:
Deducted from allowance – The leave will reduce the employee's available allowance.
No effect on allowance – The leave will not affect the allowance at all.
Add to allowance – The leave will increase the employee’s allowance (used for earned time off, etc.).
To ensure a leave type draws from the employee's allowance, you must select the "Deducted from allowance" option when configuring that leave type.
How to Check or Update the Setting:
Go to Settings > Leave Types
- Select the leave type you want to modify.
- In the Effect on Holidaay Allowance section, choose “Deducted from allowance”.
- Save changes.
This will ensure that any time off booked under this leave type is correctly deducted from the employee’s annual allowance.
