Payroll Administrators can record leave taken by employees by capturing the days on a calendar linked to the employee’s profile. This can be done as follows:

1. Go to the employee’s profile and click on Leave > Record Taken*
2. Click on the day on which the employee is taking / took leave
3. Select the leave Type from the drop-down menu
4. Edit the To date if the employee is taking / took more than one day

   • public holidays will be excluded from these dates automatically

   • weekends will be excluded for employees on a Fixed schedule unless weekends form part of their Regular Working Days

   • weekends will be included for employees on a Casual / Temp schedule

5. Click Confirm to the right of the calendar
6. If you have finished recording leave, click Save; otherwise, repeat steps 2 – 5 to record additional leave
