A Leave Type in Zoho People is a category of absence that defines how leave is accrued, whether it is paid or unpaid, how many days are allowed, and what rules apply — such as Casual Leave, Sick Leave, Annual Leave, or Maternity Leave.
A Leave Type defines a specific category of time-off entitlement. Each Leave Type has its own rules: how many days are granted per year, whether days accrue over time or are granted upfront, whether unused days can be carried forward, whether the leave is paid, and what documentation is required.
HR administrators configure Leave Types in Zoho People by setting the annual allowance, accrual frequency, carry-forward rules, encashment eligibility, and the approval workflow for each type.
