Leave Priority Workflow Example:
First Level: Time In Lieu Taken Second Level: Annual Leave Taken Third Level: Leave Without Pay (LWOP) Taken
Scenario 1
Request: 1 day of Time In Lieu
Balances: Time In Lieu (0.25 days), Annual Leave (0.25 days), LWOP (unlimited days).
The system deducts 0.25 days of Time In Lieu.
Next, it deducts 0.25 days of Annual Leave.
Finally, 0.5 days of LWOP is applied to complete the request.
Scenario 2
Request: 1 day of Annual Leave.
Outcome: The leave priority settings do not apply.
This request does not match the first-level leave type (Time In Lieu).
A new leave priority (Annual Leave > Leave Without Pay) needs to be created to support this workflow.
