As an administrator, you can change absence type settings. Enabling attachments can be useful for absence types that require supporting documents, such as Sick Leave, Maternity Leave, or similar.
To enable adding attachments to the request, follow these steps:
Go to Configuration → Time Off: Absence types
Select the absence type you want to enable attachments for and click Edit
Inside the absence type, go to the Fields & visiblity tab
Decide if the attachment is required or optional.
Save the changes.
You can also decide to whom the attachment should be visible:
Reporter, manager, approver and admins (recommended setting)
Only admins
All users
💡 Tip
If you want to inform employees about the type of document they need to attach to the request, use the field in the "Messages" tab - Final question before absence request confirmation.
The employees will see this information before creating the absence request.
