Absence Reasons

Overview

The Absence Reasons add/edit list can be accessed from TeamTime Defaults, the Employee Absence Tracker window, the Post Watch - Confirm Changes window, and from the Time Off tab on the SYS: eHub Setup window.

Key Functionality

WinTeam automatically assigns an ID to each new record, and uses the ID field to identify each record. You may change system-assigned ID Numbers.

Enter a reason for the absence in the Time Off Reason field.

This field is driven by the Time Off Reason and can be any of the following:

  • Paid - Benefit Required
  • Paid - Benefit Not Required
  • Unpaid

This is an optional field that can display helper text to employees—for example, if they need to supply additional information for the reason they selected.
