Why Input Dependant's Details?
With the introduction of parental leave, employers need to keep track of basic details of employees' children and child-related leave applications, primarily date of birth for purposes of age.
Enabling the Dependant's 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 Dependant'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
Once you have children added for an employee, you can view these, as shown below.
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.
