General Settings screen in LeavePro

Who can view supporting documents (attachments)? This lets you control the privacy of any supporting documentation attached to leave applications, such as medical certificates. You can choose to allow leave approvers and administrators to view them, or only leave approvers.

Who can cancel or amend approved leave? You can either allow just administrators, or administrators and approvers to be able to cancel and amend leave applications.

Administrators can approve on behalf of leave approvers: This will allow any employee with administration access to approve leave on behalf of leave approvers. The system will record that they approved the application.

Employees can link their LeavePro calendar to their personal calendar, such as their Google or Outlook calendar.

You can also allow employees to link their department’s leave calendar or the entire company’s leave calendar using the options:
