You can add multiple employee absences in bulk when you need to enter lots of holiday or sickness records quickly, instead of adding them one by one for each employee.
It’s useful for things like:
Adding historical leave or sickness even on closed rotas.
Uploading a batch of absences from a spreadsheet via Data Manager, validate first then upload.
🤓Tip: Add just one record first, check it’s correct on the employee’s profile, then upload the rest.
⚠️Important: Please ensure that you are using the correct absence class and absence period scheme for this to appear correct.
