It is possible to set a default time off duration for your employees that is different from the default value set in the time off settings.


Override the organization's default vacation time for a specific person

To override the default vacation time, first go to the employee's profile via the “HR” tab -> “Employees.”

Once in their profile:

  1. Select the “Settings” tab

  2. Enable “Override the organization's default time off duration”

  3. Enter the desired value

  4. Click “Save”

This value will then be automatically used when you accept a time off request or create a manual time off. Note that you can still modify it if necessary.


Fixed annual allowance for a specific person

If your employee has a specific number of days for a particular type of leave, you can override the leave and choose a fixed number of days via “HR” -> “Employees” -> Employee profile -> “Settings“ -> “Override the organization's default leave value” -> “Fixed number of days”
