Adding an expiration date to a one-off adjustment:

Expiration dates can simply be added to any increase adjustment you add to an employee allowance. Following the same steps as above, you will simply need to add the expiration date before saving the adjustment.

Once saved the adjustment will be visible in the same place however a note including the expiration date will be visible by hovering over the "i" icon.

Note: Any holiday booked where an expiring adjustment has been added to an allowance, the holiday will count toward the adjustment with the soonest expiration date.

Expiring adjustments cannot span more than one leave years so any adjustments added this year will not be moved forward to next year.
