How to Always Display an Absence Type in the Payroll Report

This guide explains how to configure an absence type so that it always appears as a column in the Excel payroll report, even if no employees reported that absence during the selected period. This is useful for maintaining a consistent report structure for accounting or data analysis.

Step-by-Step Guide

  1. Navigate to Settings in the main sidebar and click on Company Profile.
  2. Select the Absence types tab from the top menu.

  4. Scroll to the bottom of the page to locate the advanced options.
  5. Check the box labeled “Include in payroll regardless of occurrence.”
