Configure the leave approval workflow

Set the organization's default approval order on Admin Panel → Leave → Approval Workflows.

1. Click Add Step to create an approval step.
2. Select Line Manager, Role, or Specific Person as the approver type. Specific Person requires an active organization user.
3. If there are multiple steps, reorder them with the up/down arrows; remove unnecessary steps.
4. Click Save Changes.

The system resolves the workflow in this order: employee-specific workflow → organization default. If an employee-specific workflow exists, it takes precedence; otherwise, the organization workflow is used.

For an employee-specific order, open employee profile → Leave → Leave Configuration, enable custom approval workflow, edit the steps, and save. This does not change the default order for other employees.

For approval actions, see Leave Requests → Track and approve requests. When a workflow is active, Approve/Reject is available only to the authorized person at the current step. An administrator using an override must enter a reason.

note

Adding or reordering steps changes only the draft shown on screen. Click Save Changes to keep them.
