Filing Maternity Leave for Another Employee in Sprout HR
As an HR or administrative professional, you may need to file leave on behalf of an employee, particularly for extended absences like Maternity Leave.
This article outlines the two primary methods for filing Maternity Leave for another employee within the Sprout HR system, detailing both the standard, per-day method and a more convenient, full-range alternative that requires employee consent.
Can I File Maternity Leave on Behalf of an Employee in Sprout HR?
Yes, you can file Maternity Leave on behalf of the employee using the "filing leave on behalf of employee" function.
- Method 1: Filing via Resolution Center (Per-Day Basis)
- This method is accessible once the employee already has missing logs/attendance discrepancies that appear on the Resolution Center.
- You may proceed with filing here; however, please note that this method allows filing on a per-day basis only.

- Method 2: Filing Directly via Employee's Account (Full Date Range - Recommended)
- Alternatively, for convenience, you may request the employee's consent to access her Sprout account directly.
- This will allow you to file her Maternity Leave in a full date range on her behalf, saving significant time.
- Crucial Note: Please ensure that you obtain permission from the employee before proceeding with this access.
- Once the filing is completed, you may advise the employee to reset her password so she can regain access to her account securely.
