Planning leave for next year already? On the budget page of a leave type you always see next year as well as this year. You find that page under Colleagues > [name] > Leave > Budgets > [leave type].
Your budget for next year consists of:
Transferred: the budget you have left over from this year. Budget that still expires this year is not transferred.
Received: the leave you will build up next year. You don't have it yet, but we already count it.
Spent: approved leave that falls in next year.
Available is Transferred plus Received, minus Spent. If your contract ends next year, we only count the leave you build up until the end date.
Why does next year show 0?
Some leave types release their budget afterwards, at the end of each month, quarter, week or year. For those, we don't count next year's leave yet, and Received shows 0. For next year you then only see what you transfer, minus what you have already spent. The budget is added once that month, quarter, week or year has passed.
Why is next year negative?
Next year turns negative when more leave has been approved in that year than you transfer and build up. If your employer blocks requests that exceed your available budget, we check each request against this year's Available, also when the leave falls in next year. The leave itself comes off next year's budget. If you have less available next year than this year, next year can drop below 0. It can also happen when your employer doesn't block these requests, or when a team lead or admin enters the leave for you.
