Change a main workspace: absences

Written by Cescia Vanhout

🏢 Changing an employee’s main workspace

When you update the main workspace of an employee, it’s now possible to select a workspace that belongs to a different company.
​
If you don't know how this is done, follow this guide.
​
​
In some cases, you might want to move the employee’s future absences to this new company and we’ll guide you through it step by step. 💡

🧭 When you change the workspace

If the employee has future absences, a pop-up will appear asking if you want to move those absences to the new main company.
If there are no future absences, this pop-up won’t appear!

🪄 The “move absences” modal

When you click Save, you’ll see a window where you can:
1️⃣ Choose a date from which the absences should be moved.
2️⃣ Decide what happens next:

  • Save without moving → Only the workspace switch will be saved.

  • Save and move → All absences after the selected date will move to the new company, and the workspace change will be saved. ✅

⚠️ Payroll Closure Warning

If there’s a payroll closure period after your selected date, you’ll see another pop-up.
You can then decide what to do:

  • Yes → Move all absences after the date (even those inside a closed payroll period).

  • No → Don’t move any absences and go back to the first pop-up.

💬 Quick Summary

  • Changing main workspace? You can also move future absences.

  • Choose your start date carefully.

  • Payroll closures will trigger an extra confirmation.

  • No future absences = no pop-up.
