To enter unpaid leave, do the following:
1. Create absence type “Unpaid leave”
Sign in to Timebutler as an Admin and click bottom left on “Settings > More..”, then on the right on “Absence types”. Check whether there is already an absence type “Unpaid leave”. If not, click the “Create new absence type” button.
Now create the absence type “Unpaid leave”. Set it so that only Admins may enter it, or that this absence type requires approval. Set the option “Reduces target working time” to “Reduces the target working time in the working time account to 0 h […]”. This ensures that the employee does not have to work on those days (only relevant if you have time tracking enabled or plan to enable it in the future).
2. Enter absence entry “Unpaid leave”
Once you have created the absence type, you can enter unpaid leave for employees the same way you enter other absences. For example, click top left on “Employees > Absences > Enter absence” or click the start and end date in the calendar to create a new absence entry.
