Leave

Manage leave policies and decisions

Workspace administrators and owners use Workspace Admin → Leave Requests to review employee leave. They can approve or decline requests and record a documented balance adjustment. Only the owner can create a new leave policy version.

Review a request

1. Open the request and check the employee, leave type, dates, working-day quantity, overlap, and balance.
2. Approve or decline with the requested decision details. The balance is checked again during approval.
3. Review the result in the employee’s request and balance history.

An approved balance-based request consumes its balance once. An eligible future cancellation records a reversal; it does not delete the original decision. Adjustments require a reason and remain in the balance ledger.

Change a policy

The owner can add an effective-dated version with a stable code, paid or unpaid classification, annual allowance, and carry-forward limit. Existing requests retain the policy version used at submission. Balance-based annual policies start on 1 January. New workspaces begin with Paid Leave at 12 annual days and zero carry-forward, plus an Unpaid Leave type without a balance; these are workspace defaults, not statutory entitlements.

The current request flow uses whole working days, with no automatic monthly accrual, joining-date proration, or multi-step approver chain.
