Process leave year end activities manually

Updated in November - 2024 | Subscribe to watch greytHR how-to video

Leave Year End (LYE) refers to the end of a designated leave period where accumulated leave is assessed and reset. 

To process leave year-end activities manually as an admin, you must ensure that all the leave-related activities, such as lapses, encashments, and carry-forward balances, are settled before the next leave year begins. 

To process leave year-end manually, from the greytHR Admin portal, go to Leave > Admin > Year End Process.

A quick glance at the tabs available on the Year End Process page:

  • Pending Application: Displays all pending leave applications.

  • Year End Policy: Lists policies associated with the leave year-end.

  • Manual Process: Lists processed batches, including employee details like balance, encashed, lapsed, and closing leave balances.
