Time & Attendance for Contract and Distributed Staff
Every organization has its leave types and leave policies. You can set up your entire time off (leave) management in the Truein time off(leave) module.
If your organization has different leave policies for different categories of staff, then follow steps 1.1 and 1.2; else, skip these steps.
E.g. Permanent staff is eligible for 12 casual leaves a year; Intern staff is eligible for 6 casual leaves, and Temporary staff is not eligible for any casual leave.
Step 1.1: Setup Categories (Optional)
