Why Input Dependant's Details?
Some leave associated with parenting, such as maternity leave, requires more details, such as date of birth, to be recorded.
Saving this within a specific tab is crucial to ensure accuracy for entitlements and calculations of pay.
Enabling the Dependants' Tab
To begin with, in the Personal Details, you need to select the Has Children tab. This will enable the Children tab as another option.
Any employee without children will not have a Children's tab enabled to simplify things.
Add Child Details
Once you have enabled the Children tab, go to the tab and click Add Child.
You will have a tab open to insert the Reference, whether the child is adopted, and the Actual or Expected Date of Birth. Once you fill these in, click Add Child.
Due to the topic's sensitivity, we encourage users to add the correct information on the first try, to minimise the need to edit these details.
Viewing Details of Children and Child-Related Leave
Once you have children added for an employee, you can view these, as shown below.
Within the Children list, you can directly click on Apply for child-related leave and add the details for leave like Maternity Leave.
Edit Child's Details
In the case that you need to edit the details of a child, either due to incorrect information or due to unfortunate circumstances, you can click the Edit button on the right and update the details of that child.
We do advise caution prior to editing child details due to the sensitivity of the topic.
