How do I create absence types?

To organize and plan your employees´ absence, you can use existing, as well as create your own absence types, which can be used when an employee applies for absence.

Note:

An absence type can be edited after its creation.

Absence types can be deleted as well, as long as they are not used in the planning.

Therefore, it is recommended not to create and set up the necessary absence type, before you actually need it to register or export absence to your digital economic system.

In this article, you will learn how to set up absence types:
