Employees should not be able to add 'Other Event' themselves to planner.

there should be an option where only managers or admins can add these other reasons for absence

    I like the feature but it causing issues as employees keep selection random ie - counselling session under Compassionate leave, car in for service under Authorised paid leave.

    Maybe add tick box options who can access reasons selection.

    This should be made an option, so either employees can add other events or they cannot. At the moment they can, it should be a choice in settings.

    I vote against this change and agree with the other comments that this is a useful feature for employees to be able to use so long as the Manager has sight and it goes through authorisation

    We like this feature- build the required authorisation rule so it can be approved by HR or management

    We actively want staff to be able to add other events themselves, so they can request other leave and then this is approved or denied by manager.
