How to stop leave accruals based on the leave taken?

If employees continue to accrue leave while taking time off, they may build up a large balance that can create staffing and financial challenges for the organization. By stopping leave accruals, employers can encourage employees to take time off when needed and manage leave balances more effectively.

To configure these settings on the Keka Portal, navigate to Time Attend (1), then go to Leave (2), and under Leave Plans (3) you will see all the leave plans configured for your organization. 

Select the relevant leave plan and find the Leave Type you want to make prorated. Click on the three dots next to View and click Settings.

This will open a new window. Go to the Accrual (1) section and click on Accrual Restrictions (2). Here, enable the option "No leave is accrued if an employee is on any leave for more than _____ days in the previous month (irrespective of leave calendar year). (3) " You must also fill in the total number of leave days.

Now you can click Save Changes (4) and exit the window.

If an employee has accumulated more than the number you filled in, their leave accrual will stop for this leave type. The accrual will start once again when the leave balance goes below the specified number.
