Absence Setup - Enable/Disable an absence type - Global level

This guide has been created for system administrators.

Overview:

Each absence record created in Edays is attributed to an absence type, such as Holiday or Sickness. You can adjust the ability for users to book a particular absence for themselves or other users. Booking settings for an absence type can be set at the Global, Template or User level, with each level overriding the previous, respectively.
