What Does This Module Do?
A complete, policy-driven leave management system that handles everything from leave allocation to approvals & payroll impact - without manual tracking. Institutions can define leave structures, automate validations & give staff real-time visibility into their leave balances & requests.
Benefits
How Does it Help Institutions?
Eliminate Manual Errors
No more spreadsheets or email chains. The system automatically calculates balances, deductions, and edge cases like sandwich leaves or Loss of Pay (LOP).
Enforce Policies Without Effort
Built-in rules ensure every leave request follows institutional policies - notice periods, document requirements, and limits are enforced automatically.
Payroll-Ready Accuracy
Unpaid leaves (LOP) are tracked in real time and flow directly into payroll, preventing revenue leakage or incorrect salary processing.
Full Transparency for Staff & Management
Employees can view balances and status anytime, while management gets a clear view of who's on leave and when.
Features
Key Capabilities
Everything you need for comprehensive leave management
Policy-Driven Leave Management
Define leave types (Casual, Sick, Earned, etc.) & configure detailed rules like:
- Allocation (monthly/yearly)
- Min/max limits
- Carry-forward rules
- Document requirements
- Notice periods
Smart Leave Application Experience
Employees can apply for full-/half-day leaves, attach supporting documents & get real-time validation before submission.
- Insufficient balance - marked as LOP
- Policy violations - blocked/warned
- Sandwich rule impact - shown upfront
Automated Leave Calculations
Handles complex scenarios automatically:
- Sandwich Logic - Includes intervening holidays/weekends
- Clubbing Restrictions - Prevents incompatible leave combinations
- Loss of Pay (LOP) - Converts excess leave into unpaid days
Multi-Level Approval Workflows

- Staff see their balances, history & upcoming leaves
