Who can add sick leave (L4) requests in the Proplanum application?
Sick leave, known as L4, is a document confirming incapacity to work due to illness or sudden injury. At Proplanum, employee absence requests, including L4, are created individually for the company's needs.
Important: Only Organization Administrators can create a type of request, such as sick leave, within the organization. They can do this using a web browser in a few simple steps
After logging into Proplanum, from the main dashboard, go to the "Company Settings" tab in the upper right corner, and then "Requests".
From the list on the left side, select "Requests".
To add a new request, select "Add Request".
Choose the type of request from the available options: Leave, Delegation, Other.
Tip: To create a sick leave request, choose the type "Other".
Set the remaining details of the request, including:
the name of the request and its abbreviation, e.g., Sick Leave - L4
type - Paid or Unpaid.
the option "Allow employee to add a note". It is worth selecting this option so that the employee can describe their situation.
the option "Allow employee to add an attachment". It is worth selecting this option so that the employee can add, for example, a paper form of the sick leave.
the option "Leave requires approval".
Important: Do not select this option, as sick leaves are imposed from above and you cannot reject such requests.
the option "Limited". Do not select this option, as employees do not have limits when it comes to sick leave days.
After filling in all the data, click "Save", and the new request will be added to the company.
