Organisations may have requirements where employees should have visibility on certain leave categories, whereas other categories they may need this visibility disabled.

To begin with, you will need to edit your leave categories and select what visibility your employees will have regarding the accrued leave balance. The steps on how to undertake this are:

- Click the Business Settings menu.

Since the HR platform is the source of truth for information such as company settings, payroll settings, and employee file data; it will require you to re-synchronise your platforms, to import the updated leave category settings. The steps on how to undertake this are:
- Log into your Employment Hero HR platform.
- Click the Settings menu.
- Click the Leave Categories submenu.
- Click the Update From Payroll button.
