ESS uses leave reason descriptions from MicrOpay. If you have multiple leave reasons with the same description, e.g., you might have two annual leave leave reasons, the leave reason will appear multiple times in ESS.
To differentiate the leave reasons in ESS, change the description in MicrOpay so that they are unique. To do this:
Log in to MicrOpay.
Go to Payroll, Maintenance, Leave, Leave Reasons.
Edit the leave reason.
Change the Description.
Click OK.
Log in to ESS as an Administrator.
Go to Settings, General.
Tick Sync from Payroll for the database with the updated leave reason.
Click Sync.
To check that the leave reason has been set up to select in leave applications:
Go to Settings, Leave.
Edit the leave type (pencil in a square) and ensure the Leave Reasons is selected.
