How to create a custom leave approval policy?

Follow the steps below to set up your custom policy:

  1. Navigation: Go to the Sidebar and click on 'Settings'. From there, choose 'Approval Policies' in the sub-item, and you'll find "Leave and Time Tracking Policies".

  2. Selecting the Right Option: Approval policies allow you to:

    • Create a new approval policy as per your preferences and requirements

    • Modify existing approval policies

    • Assign particular employees to the pre-built rule 'Line manager to approve only'

    • Assign particular employees to custom-made created specific approval policy

  3. Pre-built Rules: On the Remote People platform, we've set up one rule templates for your convenience:

    • Line manager to approve only: The line manager is the sole individual responsible for reviewing, approving, or rejecting leave requests submitted by employees.

  4. Creating a Custom Policy:

    • In case you wish to create another policy besides the pre-built 'Line manager to approve only', Click 'Add New' located in the upper right corner.

    • A blank policy template will appear. Enter your desired rule name.

    • Customize your multi-tiered leave approval rules as you see fit. You, the Client Admin User, can designate one or multiple simultaneous approvers for each level. If any approver in a given tier makes a decision (approval or rejection), that tier's decision process is deemed complete.

    • Approvers within the same tier will simultaneously receive email notifications for the requests.

  5. Managing and Editing Rules:

    • Click on the 'View>' link to access specific rule details.

    • By selecting "Manage" and ticking the employee's name, you can allocate the policy to the respective employees.
