What is happening

If an employee tries to apply for leave dated in the next calendar year and sees "no leave type available for the selected year", this is expected — the leave policies for that year don't exist yet.

BrioHR automatically creates next year's leave calendar for all client accounts during Q4. No action is required on your side.

Step-by-Step Instructions (allow access once the new calendar exists)
  1. Navigate to the employee's user group settings.
  2. Open Employee modules permission > Leave module.
  3. Tick Allow access to following year.
  4. The employee can now apply for leave dates in the new year.
