Leave Type Setup Options

When adding a leave type, only one field is required to save the record — leave type name. As a result, there is a lot of flexibility in how you set up your leave system. This topic describes some of the ways you can set up leave types to accomplish different methods of accruing leave.

Two different leave accrual setups

1. Employees in different groups accrue differing amounts of a leave type without reference to years of service.

2. Employees in different groups accrue differing amounts of a leave type based on years of service.
