Previously, Eddy only allowed one time off category per day. This update removes that limitation, letting employees submit time off requests across multiple categories on the same date—for example, using a few hours of sick leave and a few hours of vacation on the same day.

Admins can now define the maximum number of hours an employee can request off in a single day. This setting lives in Admin Settings > Time & Attendance > Time Off Requests, under a new section called Maximum Time Off Per Day. The default is 24 hours, which matches the previous system behavior. The value cannot exceed 24 hours. Once saved, a confirmation indicator will appear next to the section header.

The Request Time Off card now reflects daily hour context in real time. As employees enter hours across a date range, any day that already has approved or pending time off will surface a note showing previously requested hours against the allowed maximum. This helps employees stay within the limit without needing to cross-reference other requests manually.

When an employee submits a request that conflicts with the daily limit, they'll see one of two messages depending on the situation. If the hours entered on a single day exceed the org's maximum, an error message will appear inline on that date row, blocking submission until the hours are reduced. If hours have already been requested for a day through a separate request, an informational message will appear showing how many hours are already accounted for and what the daily maximum is—allowing the employee to adjust before submitting.
