Step 4: Configure Weekly Off Comp-Off Eligibility
-
Define whether employees receive Comp-Off when working on a weekly off.

Step 5: Configure Holiday Comp-Off Eligibility
-
Define whether employees receive Comp-Off for working on company holidays.
-
Enter the calculation factor.
Example:
-
1 holiday worked × 1.0 = 1 Comp-Off day.
This ensures employees are compensated for holiday work.

Enter the maximum number of Comp-Off days employees can utilize in a single request.
This helps control leave usage according to company policy.
Step 7: Define Minimum Working Hours Requirement
