To add a leave date for a user in Chime, the account must first be deactivated.
The leave date field will appear greyed out until this step is completed. When deactivating the account, you will be prompted to enter a reason for leaving and a leave date.
Once the leave date has been entered, it can then be viewed and amended from the user’s Employment section if needed.

Go to the Address Book.
Select the person you want to add a leave date for.
In the Account section (under the person’s photo on the left-hand side), click Deactivate Account.
Select the leave date using the calendar.
You can also choose a date in advance, such as a week or several months ahead.
Select the reason for leaving from the drop-down list.
Tick Yes to confirm the deactivation.
Click Confirm.
Viewing or Editing the Leave Date
Open the user’s profile.
Click the Employment icon at the top of the screen.

Make sure the correct reason for leaving is selected to maintain accurate records and reporting.
