When attaching employees to a new leave scheme setup, why are balances defaulting to zero?

This feature is available on all Deel Local Payroll powered by payspace payroll editions
If a new leave type is created under an existing leave scheme in the middle of a cycle, it will pull through to the employees' Leave Balances screen, however, the leave balance will be zero (for instance, a Special Leave type was added to an existing Standard Leave Scheme setup).
The new leave type's balance/accrual will only take effect once the new leave cycle begins.
Navigate > Config > Human Resources > Leave Administration > Leave Scheme Parameters

A leave adjustment may be processed to correct the employee's leave balance.
