You can create an Unpaid Leave policy where any requested leave of this type, is automatically deducted from the employee's pay.

To set up an unpaid leave policy, follow the below steps:

Step 1

Click on Configuration under Settings, and select the Leave tab. Click on Leave policies.

Step 2

Click on Add New to create a new unpaid leave policy for your company.

Step 3

Fill in the name of your policy and other details as explained in this How to create new leave policiesand select the unpaid leave option as shown below. This will allow you to further set up the daily wage calculations for unpaid leaves.

Step 4

Upon saving, assign this policy to the relevant employees as needed using the '>>' icon as shown below or click on move all if this policy is applicable to all employees.

To Unassign employees you can click on the cross 'x' icon or Remove all.

Scroll down and click Next when complete.

Step 5

Confirm or edit the details shown for each employee (Allowance, Pro-rated Days, and Days Used). For example, if one of the employees has already consumed/applied for days of this leave type in the past, you can edit the Used Days column.

Your new leave will be added to your list of leave policies and you can make edits as needed by clicking on the pencil icon.
