As a HR Admin, or a person with access to Leave Module, you can manually edit carry forward balance for employees during the current year. For instance, an employee has 3 days of carry forward balance and you would like to manually add extra 2 days to his carry forward balance. Hence, his latest carry forward balance for this year will be 5 days

If you have enabled 'Carry Forward' function in your leave policy, the system will automatically carry forward leave balances according to what you have pre-set in the policy on midnight of December, 31 yearly.

NOTE: The system will auto-carry forward if you enable this "carry forward" function before December, 31!


For example, if you set Carry Forward :

  • Max days allow to carry forward : 5 days
  • Expiry period : 6 months


How it works is that the system will carry forward maximum 5 days from employee's remaining balance by end of year, and it will expire before 30th June yearly (expiry period of 6 months)


For those with balance less than 5 days, the system will bring forward all remaining balance.


For those with balance more than 5 days, the system will cap/limit the number of allowable days to be carried forward to 5 days.


NOTE: You can only edit carry forward balance for the current year only!
