Select the policy where you want to add restricted leave dates.
Step 3 — Go to Leave Tab
Inside the selected policy, click on the Leave tab.
Scroll down to find the Restricted Dates section under When can't employees take leave?
Step 4 — Add Restricted Dates
Click + Add Another.
A box titled Add New Restricted Dates will appear.
Select the date range for which leave is not allowed.
Enter a reason for restricting leave (e.g., Year-End Closing, Peak Season, Audit Period, etc.)
Click Save.
Step 5 — Finalize the Update
After adding all restricted dates, click Update Policy to apply changes.
✅ Now employees won’t be able to request leave on these restricted dates when submitting leave requests.
