Important Notes

  • In order to activate the time off sync, the time off report URL must be defined.

  • In order to activate the leave of absence sync, the leave of absence Report URL and deleted leave of absence report URL must be defined.

  • Once defined, the report URLs’ values can’t be changed and the Leave Of Absence and/or Time Off sync(s) can’t be deactivated.

  • If the employee sync is deactivated and later reactivated, the previous leave Of Absence and/or Time Off sync configurations will remain the same as they were before the Employee sync was deactivated. 

  • Time off and/or leave of absence requests (for Time Off and/or Leave of Absence types synced from Workday to Humanity – i.e. Workday - Vacation) must not be requested/approved in Humanity.

Upon Time Off (TO) and/or Leave of Absence (LOA) sync activation, the following settings will be automatically set and must not be changed in order for the TO and/or LOA sync(s) to work properly:

  • The settings under the “Current Leave Types” section ( Settings > Leave and Availability) will be set to the values shown in the following screenshot. These settings apply only to TO and/or LOA types synced from Workday to Humanity (i.e. Workday - Vacation).
