When your personnel goes on long-term leave, you’ll need to mark them as on leave in Vanta to pause their tasks, ensure these tasks don’t become overdue, and prevent tests from failing.

There are two ways personnel are marked on long-term leave in Vanta:

• Automatically mark personnel as on leave from HRIS integrations: For supported HRIS integrations, Vanta will automatically place personnel on leave in Vanta if the person is placed on leave more significant than 30 days in their HRIS.
• Manually mark personnel as on leave: You can also manually mark someone as on leave in Vanta.
