Default leave end date and description

Selecting the Default end date and description for leave option in Settings causes UpSheets to automatically set the following values on import:
  • description = type
  • end_date = start_date
The result is that you do not need to provide end_date or description in your file. When validation shows Description is required for Leave Requests, enable this setting or include a mapped Description column in your file.

When to use this

This setting is useful when your leave requests are typically single-day events (e.g. sick leave, single-day annual leave) and your source file only includes start dates. Alternatively, you may have these values stored elsewhere and just want to get sufficient data into Xero to pay your employees.
