If you want to authorize Leave to an employee/employer, you can utilize Leave Management tool.

A Leave can be a various types of absence such as personal leave (vacation or time-off), family incidents (death or accidents), maternity leave (fraternity leave), Work off-site or business trips, or military service or jury duty(citizenship duties). Some of these can be taken into account as a part of worktime(paid time-off), or not considered as part of worktime(non-paid time-off).  

Scenario in this example:  an employer (Administrator) needs to go for his military service duty on Nov 1st, 2018. 

• The purpose of using Leave Management is to identify if an employee/employer is entitled to have paid time-off or non-paid time-off.
  
• Worked: paid time-off(counted as a part of worktime
  
• Non-worked: non-paid time-off(not considered as part of worktime)
  

* Because the military service duty is not taken off of the employer's entitled leave for the year, it will be considered as “Worked” leave in this example.
