Processing Leave Applications on the Leave Adjustments Screen
Leave applications can be processed either directly on the system or through Employee Self Service (ESS). If the employee is not registered for ESS, a leave application can be captured on the Leave Adjustments Screen by the Company Level User.
Tip
When an employee submits a leave application via the Employee Self Service (ESS) portal, it will be processed on the Leave Application Screen.
Processing Leave Adjustments on the Leave Adjustments Screen
Examples of processing leave adjustments, include the following:
- Where you have neglected to link an employee to a leave scheme and do so after a period, you can process a leave adjustment to correct the employee’s leave balances. The system will not adjust the leave balances automatically.
- Updating employees’ leave balances as part of a year-to-date take-on.
- Where an employee has moved between leave schemes that have not been mapped on Company Level.
Tip
Mapping of leave schemes is only available on Master Payroll Edition.

The Leave Adjustments Screen
Saved applications and adjustments will reflect on the History Grid.
Example: From the Following Container Field
In this example, the two lines have been created on Company Level for the leave type, Annual Leave:
- Base Annual Leave
- Extra Annual Leave
A container has also been created, specifying a priority. Any leave applications should first be deducted from the Extra Annual Leave line’s balance. Once that balance has been exhausted, it can be deducted from the Base Annual Leave line’s balance.
When the Company Level User processes a leave application on the Leave Adjustments Screen, the following options for the field,
from the following container, will be available:
- Base Annual Leave: Selecting this option, will deduct the leave application from the Base Annual Leave line’s balance.
- Extra Annual Leave: Selecting this option, will deduct the leave application from the Extra Annual Leave line’s balance.
- Use leave priority: It will apply the priority that has been set-up on Company Level. Therefore, the leave application will be deducted from the Extra Annual Leave line’s balance. Should that balance be exhausted, it will deduct it from the Base Annual Leave line’s balance.
