Estimated reading: 3 minutes 315 views

The Leave service in Zoho People is where employees view, apply for and manage their leave. Click the Leave icon in the left navigation bar to open it; it’s available to employees, managers and administrators alike.

What you can do in the Leave service

  1. View Leave Summary: go to Leave > Leave Summary (or Leave > My Data > Leave Summary) for your leave policies, balances, recent absences, upcoming holidays and past leave history, with shortcuts to apply for leave.
  1. Calendar View: see your leave and holiday information month by month, and move between past and upcoming months.
  1. Sync Leave Calendar: Zoho People is integrated with Zoho Calendar by default, and you can also sync approved leave and holidays with Microsoft 365 Calendar or Google Calendar from the More options (⋯) menu. You must revoke access to one calendar before switching to another.
  2. Apply Leave, Compensatory Off or Leave Grant: go to Leave > Leave Requests / Compensatory Off / Leave Grant > Add Request, or use the Apply Leave button from Leave Summary or from Home > My Space > Activities. Select a leave type and date range, check your leave summary and policy, and attach supporting files if required.
    • Leave Grant: a manager can allocate extra leave days beyond your entitlement.
    • Compensatory Off: take time off in exchange for extra hours or days worked.
  1. Cancel a Leave Request: go to Leave > Leave Requests, select an unapproved request and click Cancel Leave. For multi-day requests, you can cancel specific days if your organisation allows partial cancellation.
  1. View Bradford Score Information: go to Leave > Bradford Score (if enabled) to see a score measuring the impact of frequent short-term absences on productivity.
  1. View Shift Information: go to Leave > My Data > Shifts to view weekly or monthly shifts, and use the navigation arrows to move between periods.
  1. View Team Members’ Leave Information: go to Leave > Team to see who on your team is on leave, for better planning.
  1. Access Leave Reports: go to Reports > My Reports / Team Reports for leave-related reports on yourself or your team.
  1. See Team Availability: go to Reports > Team Reports > Resource Availability Report to check when team members are available, for better scheduling.
