Learn how the quota setting affects employees, managers, and administrators when they register self-certified absence.

This setting clarifies when employees can use self-certified absence and when they must provide a medical certificate instead. Employees, managers, and administrators receive clearer guidance during registration, while the organization controls whether employees are blocked after using their self-certified absence quota.

What is the setting for limiting self-certified absence to the quota?

The organization can activate Limit registration of self-certified absence for employees to the quota.

How does the self-certified absence quota affect employees?

When Limit registration of self-certified absence for employees to the quota is active:

• Employees who are not entitled to self-certified absence because the entitlement has not been accrued or has been lost cannot select self-certified absence
• Employees cannot register additional self-certified absence after using their self-certified absence quota

How does the self-certified absence quota affect managers and administrators?

Managers and administrators can register self-certified absence after the quota has been used. Before completing the registration, they must confirm their choice.

The same confirmation step applies if the documentation type is changed to self-certified absence after the quota has already been used.

The confirmation makes it clear that the registration exceeds the quota and helps ensure that exceptions are handled deliberately.

Where can I see use of the self-certified absence quota?

Information about self-certified absence appears consistently in dialogs and overviews in the absence log.

Users can see the number of days and cases used toward the self-certified absence quota. This information is shown regardless of whether the action is blocked or requires confirmation.
