What’s New
The Attaché Development team have reviewed scenarios covering when leave and employees are visible on the Express Leave Calendar and who is permitted to see those leave entries and employees. With feedback from customers, support and services we have made a number of changes to who can view which leave and employees in the calendar to ensure the best result for all of our customers.
What have we changed inside Express Leave?
Leave Type - Visible to now applied for all user roles
Visibility of Leave type and leave hours: Based on the user role selected under the Visible to field in Leave Types. Any user role below that selected level will no longer display the Leave Type and the Leave hours in the pop-up when hovering over a leave request on the Leave Calendar.
Leave Calendar Access Level - Now applies for all user roles
Leave calendar menu: Based on the user role you have selected from Company Details, Leave Calendar Access Level, any user role below the selected level will no longer display the Leave Calendar menu item on the left-hand side of the Express Leave Page.
Updates to the leave calendar
My Calendar - the person that has logged into Express Leave should be displayed at the top of the list under My Calendar - On the right side of the leave calendar. Users should see all their leave they have applied for irrespective of the configuration of Leave Types, Visible To field value. This change has been made because the person who is logged into Express Leave should always see their own leave request and what type of leave they are requesting.
People I approve - Should display any employee that has been approved by the employee logged into Express Leave. It will check for any leave approvals completed by the logged in employee (From My Calendar) against the approval history table inside the company selected in Express Leave.
All Staff - Will list every active employee in the database for the company selected.
Favorites and Personal Listed Calendar options - Will list every active employee which has been selected as a favorite by selecting the star or the + button for a user's own personalised list of employees.
