Create custom types of time off for your organization, besides Vacation, Sick leave, WFH, and Bereavement. 

To create a custom type of time off:

1. Go to Settings and select Time off.

2. Under the Types tab (1), click Add time off type (2).

3. Enter a name and a number of days (3) for the default budget of your new type of time off. Time off budgets can be allotted in decimal formats too. The lowest fraction the system will accept is 0.001 days. 

4. Choose whether this type of time off is Paid (4) or not.

5. Toggle the Needs approval option (5) depending on if you wish employees’ requests for this type of time off to be automatically approved or not. If you disable this option, the time off request will need to be approved by the employee’s manager or assigned approver(s), if there are any. 

6. Toggle the Display time off type option (6) as needed. Enable it if you wish the time off type to be shown on the calendar when an employee has booked time off for that type, or disable it if you wish to hide the time off type from the calendar, for privacy reasons. If it’s disabled, then booked time off for that type will simply show up as “Vacation”.

7. Finally, enable or disable the Block other time off option. If it’s enabled, when an employee books time off of that type, they won’t be able to book other types of time off for the same period.

8. Click Save.
