To manage time off effectively and enforce leave policies, administrators can set a maximum number of Leave Time hours that users are allowed to enter—either per day or per reporting period—based on their assigned Resource Type.
This configuration ensures consistent time tracking and helps align leave usage with organizational or contractual rules. You can define these limits as part of your Leave Time processing rules in the system setup.
This article details to configure maximum Leave Time hours per day or period for users based on their Resource Type. This setup helps ensure compliance with organizational leave policies.
Note: The pages shown in this article may differ from yours as your organization may have required a different set up altogether or it may be due to different rights granted to you.
