Leave uploaded through data manager for incorrect period

If you have uploaded leave for employees through data manager and this is not showing as deducting from the entitlement despite the absence class being configured to do so, this is possibly due to the wrong period being selected for the employee when uploading the leave data in data manager.
​
Each employee will be assigned to an absence period scheme; you may have different absence period schemes at the same time depending on your organisation such as having absences run between January - December or April - March for example. Within each Absence Period Scheme, you will define absence periods, i.e. 2023 or 01/01/2023 - 31/12/2023.
​
If these names are duplicated or you select the incorrect period within Data Manager when entering the leave data, you may find the leave is added but is not visible in the employee's absence page, outside of the calendar and is not deducting from their leave entitlement for the required period, in which case you will need to remove the incorrectly entered absence and re-upload with the correct details.
