Multi-Level Approval Workflows

The Right People Approve — in the Right Order

Payroll Integration

Unapproved Leave becomes LOP — Automatically

When leave is not approved or is unpaid, it flows directly into the payroll engine as a Loss of Pay deduction. No month-end manual reconciliation. No spreadsheet matching between HR and finance. The connection is live and automatic.

  • LOP deduction applied to pay run automatically
  • Leave encashment calculated on FnF exit
  • Real-time leave balance visible to employees
  • Compliance with maternity and paternity entitlements enforced
