How to Set Attendance Day Limits per User

Step 1:

Go to Global menu >> Users.

Step 2:

Select the user for whom you want to set a limit.

Step 3:

Click the Working time tab.

Step 4:

Scroll down to the section called Attendance days limits.

Step 5:

Fill in the yearly limit in days for each attendance category:

For example: Vacation = 20 means the user has 20 vacation days per year.
Add similar values for other categories like Sick.

Step 6:

Enter Accumulated days if the user has unused leave from the previous year.

This value must be entered manually at the end of the year.

Important Notes

The system does not block attendance logging if the limit is exceeded.
The user sees a warning message when they go over the set limit.
The detailed attendance report will show extra days as negative values.

Conclusion

You have now set up annual day limits for attendance categories for individual users. This ensures better tracking of days off without restricting users from logging entries when needed.
