What's new

Minutes Leave (Time Off) feature is the newest Leave Type Category Payboy released to allow employees flexibility to request time off in hours and minutes. With separation from the day-based leave, this leave type will not interfere with the other leave type entitlements. Similar to other existing leave types, admin/ HR would be able to give additional leave entitlements under the hours and minutes unit.


Where and how to create the Minutes leave type

Navigate to the sidebar of the screen, click on Leaves > Leave Types > + Add Leave Type button at the top right part of the page:


Click on the category field, choose Time Off from the drop-down options, and click Submit:



After choosing the type, you may key in the leave type name and adjust the settings, and the leave balance entitlement according to the company policy, just like how you set it for other leave types with day-based entitlement:


Always remember to click Submit for the system to save the settings and changes made.


Next, click View Entitlements:


Click +Mass Assign:


From here, you may select whether the employees are assigned to be based on the Company level, etc.


After choosing the mass assign level, please click the Submit button:


Once the assigning is done, this green prompt will show at the top of the page:


Well done, it is completed! The newly created leave type and the assigning would be reflected as below on the leave type list:


You may then refer to this article on how to apply for leave.
