Limiting Absence Reporting to a Set Number of Hours (Pregnancy Check-Ups)

This guide explains how to limit absence reporting to a set number of hours, using a 40-hour bank for pregnancy check-ups as an example.

To limit absence reporting to a number of hours or days, your account must have the Absence Management module. If you don't have it, please contact our support team or your sales representative.

Step 1: Set up the absence type

1. In Company Profile -> Absence Types, add a new absence type called "Pregnancy Check-Ups" by clicking "Add New" and typing the absence name.
2. It's important to set that this absence can only be reported in hours.
3. Make sure all the settings are configured exactly this way, then save, so the limit works correctly.

Step 2: Enter 40 hours in the employee's profile

1. Go to the employee's profile (Users -> click the employee's name to edit), and in the "Absence Balances" tab, enter a "bank" of hours available to use.

After saving the profile, any cumulative amount over 40 hours will be blocked and cannot be reported unless the administrator enters an additional balance.
