Hi,
We've got a client that needs a specific case catering for with absence management. They have some employees that have their absence approved by their line managers (e.g. office based staff) and some that might have their absence approved by someone else such as a head of centre (e.g. field staff).
On first look, the Absence Manager feature seems to cater to this. However, the client wants both types of staff to use the same leave type (i.e. Annual Leave). My impression is that one leave type can only be associated to one workflow, and one workflow to one hierachy type.
Is my understanding correct that if we were to assign an approval workflow to a Leave hierachy type (as per the absence manager feature) we would also have to give everyone a seperate leave hierachy assignment, even employees who should have their leave go to their line manager anyway? Is there any way we can avoid this, using the absence manager feature but not having seperate leave types depending on the type of employee?
Thanks
