How to add carry over data on Remote
Carryover is unused leave carried forward from a previous year. You can add carryover on Remote for one employee or upload it for multiple employees. Carryover is used first when the employee books time off, and you can set an expiration date for any unused carryover. Employees see their carryover in their time off balance.
You can add carryover for direct employees, Global Payroll employees, and employees supported through a professional employer organization (PEO). Remote manages carryover for employer of record (EOR) employees, so you cannot change it. Companies with only EOR employees do not see Adjust balance or the carryover uploader.
You need Edit access to Time off requests under Time & attendance. Company Admins and Owners have this access by default. For a custom role, Time off requests must be set to Edit. View access is not enough.
- Go to Time off > Time off requests.
- Select Add time off > Adjust balance.
3. Select the employee.
4. Enter the amount in Days. If needed, add Hours, from zero to seven, based on an eight-hour day.
5. Set the Start date, which defaults to today. Add an Expiration date if the unused carryover should expire.
6. Add Notes if needed.
7. Click Adjust balance.
