Q: Why do I see the error “Leave Create Error (00-00-00 is restricted)” when I try to apply for leave?

A: This happens because your company has placed a date restriction on that specific day. This is usually done for "Blackout Dates"—days with high workloads, important events, or deadlines where the company needs all staff present. To fix it:

  • Select Different Dates: You will need to choose a different date for your leave that is not restricted.

  • Check Company Announcements: Restricted dates are often communicated in advance. Check if that day is a mandatory working day for your department.
