Leave is a feature within the Traffio app that allows your field workers to enter their leave requests for approval. This is viewable at any time in the app in the leave tab, which displays a monthly calendar showing both approved and requested leave.
By default, leave configurations are disabled, meaning workers can view their leave but cannot submit new requests. To allow field workers to send leave requests, the leave configuration must be toggled on in Traffio configs, which can be done by users with Administrator or Manager access. Read more about access levels and permissions here.
Enabling Leave Configuration
Navigate to Admin on the sidebar
Select the Traffio Configs tab

Leave Visibility
Leave in Traffio is also used to mark field workers as unavailable for reasons unrelated to leave. In some cases, you may prefer that workers don't see these records. Extra measures are in place to control which leave records they can access.
Workers can always view the leave they submitted themselves.
Leave entered by office staff is visible only when:
It has no Leave Type, or
It has a Leave Type explicitly set to "visible to workers."
System-generated leave entries, such as those resulting from a worker rejecting a booking, are never visible to them.
