The Leave and Events groups on the Admin page hold the settings for managing leave and for scheduling events and meetings.
Leave types: manage types of leave, such as Annual Leave or Sick Leave, and who is allowed to apply for each type.
Leave alerts: manage who gets notified when leave is requested and approved — useful to remind approvers to log in and approve leave.
Leave request rules: define rules to help manage leave. Beyond whether users can apply at all, you can set 'auto-approve' and 'auto-decline' rules based on the applicant's role, the dates, the leave type, its duration, and how close it is — e.g. block leave over the New Year period, or auto-approve sick leave booked three months ahead.
Event locations: manage a master list of locations that events occur in, like meeting rooms.
Event templates: create and manage repeating events.
Event tags: create and manage tags to help manage many events and event types.
