Important

If you are a HR+PY connected client, from October 2023, you will be notified about our new integrated feature where HR will be your source of truth for all Leave settings. If you have been migrated to the new platform, then the article you need for leave categories is: How do I manage my organisation's leave categories? | HR Platform.

Error

Type. Feature. Error Description.
Import conflict. Leave Category. Leave category does not exist on Employment Hero payroll.

Explanation

This error occurs when a leave category does not exist on your Employment Hero (EH) Payroll platform. When your EH HR platform encounters this issue, it will automatically disable the affected leave category.
