What is Leave Application?

Leave application is a record representing the leave-related application applied by staff in ESS. Approver will be reviewing the application and the resulting leave record will be created. There are 3 kinds of Leave Applications:

What is the difference between Leave Application and Leave Entry?

If you do online shopping, think about the difference between the order you placed and the goods you received. You placed an order specifying what you want. Your order is reviewed by the online vendor and finally, the goods is delivered.

Leave Application is like the order and the Leave Entry (or Leave Adjustment) is the goods. In Backstage you will be performing different actions on them due to their natures.
