Agreement templates - Absence types
Updated

Absence types are different types of absences, such as holidays, illness, parental leave, personal days, long-term illness, etc. Absence types are used during the actual absence reporting process and are visible to employees and managers in different places in the system. The absence reason carries the absence code that must reflect what is set up in your payroll system. You can also link salary types to an absence reason in order to see the output in the Time card; it's also needed if you want to use cost calculations in Quinyx.
- You can enable specific absence types on an agreement under Account > Agreement templates > [agreement] > Absence types.
- As different absence types may only apply to certain types of employment or subsets of employees, on an agreement-template level, you can configure which absence types should be available in Quinyx' user interfaces. The Employee checkbox of a given absence type will affect whether or not said absence type appears in the Absence type dropdown in the Mobile and Staff portal when the employee is in the process of creating an absence.
The Manager checkbox of a given absence type will affect whether or not the absence type appears in the Absence type dropdown in the admin portal when the manager is in the process of creating, or editing an absence on behalf of an employee.
If the absences you want to use in the agreement are already configured on a different agreement, you can save time by finding that agreement under Select template to copy from.
If you want to create a custom absence type, go to Account settings > Absence management > Absence settings.
