🌟 New Feature Release: Role-Based Staff Leave Policies! 🌟

We're excited to introduce a powerful new update to streamline leave management across your nursery or childcare center β€” Staff Leave Policies by Role!

🧩 What's New?

You can now set up and customize leave policies based on different staff roles β€” whether it's Admins, Teachers, or Support Staff, each group can have its own rules and entitlements.


​

πŸ› οΈ Key Features:

  • Role-Based Leave Configuration:
    Define separate leave policies for different staff roles to better reflect their working schedules and entitlements.

    Go to Settings > Staff Leave Management to configure leave policy for each role.

  • Session-Based Leave Setup:
    Set up leave policies for each academic session (e.g. Jan 2025- Dec 2025). All leave tracking will align with the session period.

    You can set the session year by going to Settings > School Details > Edit > Choose Session Year. Once selected, the Staff Leave Management will automatically align with the session year you have configured here.

  • Leave Type Allocation:
    Configure different Leave Types and allocate the number of days under each leave type (e.g., Sick Leave, Casual Leave, Paid Leave) specific to each role. No more one-size-fits-all!

  • Leave Balance Visibility:
    Staff can now view their leave balance at any time β€” clear, transparent, and role-specific.

    Go to each Staff Profile and click Leave to see the balance.

  • Negative Balance Option:
    Want to offer flexibility? Choose to allow negative leave balance, enabling staff to take more than their allocated leaves if needed.

    You can go to Settings > Staff Leave Management. Click on 'Allow Negative Leave Balance' to enable this setting as highlighted below.

This update ensures fairness, flexibility, and better planning across your staff roster. Whether you're giving teachers more sick days or setting stricter policies for support staff, you now have full control.
