Objective
The objective of this tutorial is to help you understand how you can use the 'Leave' module to manage the leave types and request leaves.
Overview
The ‘Leave' tab is the central hub where you can easily request leave on behalf of your staff or for yourself.
‘Leave' has various ways, which makes it easy to create and manage your staff leave requests.
Things to know before you begin:
‘Leave' module must be enabled from the ‘Settings’ module.
You must have a manager/admin and supervisor access privileges in Humanity to have complete access to use all the functionalities related to the leave module.
The scheduler manages leaves for specific locations, positions and staff which has been granted to them by their Managers.
Employees can be granted scheduler permission to specific positions by their Managers which allows them to manage the leave requests for the staff which are assigned to those positions.
The manager must enable the option next to ‘Employees can book vacations' under 'Settings' module to allow their staff to request leaves for themselves.
The scenario outlined in this tutorial consists of the following building blocks:
