An "administrator" can to define which absence types can be entered and edited by his employees.
To get an overview of currently activated absence types the "absence types" function in "settings" within the left navigation bar has to be used.
After clicking the link all absence types will be shown. The activated absence types are ticked.
By ticking the box next to the absence type it can be activated or deactivated. After clicking "send changes" the changes will be activated.
When a user has entered an absence and the administrator later removes the absence type from the list of editable absence types the entry will persist and still be viewable.
New entries of the removed absence type are no longer possible.
If the absence type "sickness" is deactivated employees can no longer enter any sick notes. Furthermore "administrators" and "managers" can no longer get a "sickness ovierview".
Absence types are always effective for all users. It is not possible to define different absence types for different users.
