How to allow employees to apply leave for next calendar year?

At the end of the leave year, it is a standard practice for companies to recalculate leaves to ensure that all leave-related information, including lapses, encashments, and carry-forward balances, is accurate and up-to-date.

Now, if you want your employees to be able to apply for leave in the upcoming calendar year, there's just one setting you need to check in the leave type configurations. Let's dive into the steps on how to do it.

Go to the Time Attend(1) section of the Keka Portal, and click on Leave (2) and under this, make sure that you are on Leave Plans (3)

Here, select the Leave Plan (1) (If you have multiple) then click on the three dots (3) beside leave type (2) (the leave you want the employees to be able to apply for the next year) and click on Settings (4).

Now the lea ve configuration page will open up. Click on Save & continue until you reach the Applying Leave & Approvals (1) section and click on the Additional Settings(Optional) (2)

Once you click on Additional settings (Optional) scroll a bit down where you find the option to enable "Employee can apply for future dated leave based on projected accumulation"(1). Once we enable the option please click on Save & Continue(2). 

Now the employees in this leave plan will be able to apply this leave type for future date, including the next calender year.
