Options to Include or Not to Include Day Off & Public Holiday in Leave Submit Cut Off Before/After

The Leave Request section allows you to Set Three Different Leave Submit Cut-Off Dates

  1. No: There is no specified advance or post-advance deadline for submitting a leave request. You can submit the leave request at any time.
  2. Before: The specified number of days' notice required for submitting a leave request, such as 3 days in advance.

    If advance leave requests are required, you can choose to include weekly Days Off and Public Holidays (Tick the checkbox Include Days Off & Public Holiday) or exclude them (untick the checkbox Include Days off & Public Holiday).

    1. Example 1

      Leave Name: Vacation

      Submission Deadline = 7 days prior to leave, Excluding weekends and public holidays.

      Weekly days off = Saturday, Sunday

      Public holidays = April 6, 13, 14 and 15.


      Question: If an employee wants to submit a leave request for April 16th, by what date must they submit the request?

      Answer: Employees must submit their requests no later than April 1st, as the system counts 7 days in advance for the 2nd, 5th, 7th, 8th, 9th, 12th, and 16th.

    2. Example 2

      Leave Name: Vacation

      Submission Deadline = 7 days prior, Including weekly and public holidays.

      Weekly days off = Saturday, Sunday

      Public holidays = April 6, 13, 14 and 15.


      Question: If an employee wants to submit a leave request for April 16th, by what date must they submit the request?

      Answer: Employees must submit their requests no later than April 9th, as the system counts 7 days in advance for April 10th, 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th, 15th, and 16th.

    3. You can specify the setting to [0 days before], which will be considered as allowing employees to submit leave requests in advance, or on the first day of leave.




      For example,

      if an employee wants to take vacation on January 10th, they must submit their leave request no later than January 10th.

  3. After: The period within which a leave request must be submitted after the specified leave date, such as no more than 3 days later.

    If you set the leave request to be submitted after the actual leave date, you can choose whether to include weekly holidays and public holidays (Include Day Off & Public Holiday) or exclude them (Not Include Day Off & Public Holiday).
