Use cases
Allowing a manager to edit maternity details can be useful because:
Managers often manage their teamâs records and may need to update key dates like expected week of childbirth if something changes.
It helps keep employee records organised alongside other absence information.
It supports operational responsibility, where managers help maintain accurate information for their team.
One important thing to know though:
The maternity section is for recording only.
It does not export to payroll or reports.
If you need it to appear in payroll or leave reports, it must also be recorded as regular leave.
Permission required
As a manager, you can edit maternity with the correct permissions. The permission for this is called Maternity and you will need to view
