To assist in the creation of rosters for your business, you can specify a cut off period for the entry of unavailabilities via the self service portal.
You can set the cut-off period by going to 'Payroll Settings' > 'Employee Portal' Settings, and following the below instructions:
- Enter a value for the 'Unavailability can be entered for a particular date up to X days before it occurs' value, where X is the number of days before it falls due that you can enter an unavailability
