Will an employee's cancelled leave days automatically be added back to their leave balance?

This feature is available on all  Deel Local Payroll powered by payspace payroll editions

Yes. If the employee cancels their leave, the number of days that was originally applied for will automatically be added back to their Leave Balances screen.

Important

When multiple leave buckets are setup per leave type and employees apply for leave using 'Leave Priority,' the days are deducted from the employee's leave balance based on the order set for each bucket.

Previously, when an employee cancelled their leave, these days were automatically returned to the first bucket regardless of where the leave was originally deducted from. The process has been enhanced so that when an employee cancels their leave application, the leave balance is returned to the specific bucket from which leave was originally taken.

Example: If an employee has no leave balance in bucket 1, the leave days will be deducted from bucket 2 and when the employee cancels leave, the days will be allocated back to bucket 2.
