How Time-Off Syncing Works
Absence Categories
Time-off categories from Breathe are synced to Productive as absence categories and appear in Settings > Absence.
Each category is also added to the user's Absence tab as an unlimited absence allowance — day or hour counts from Breathe are not transferred.
📌 Don't see a category or allowance yet? It will appear in Productive once the first time-off booking of that type is approved and synced from Breathe.
Time-Off Periods
Only approved time-off bookings from Breathe are synced. Half-day bookings are also supported and will sync to Productive as half-day off periods.
The sync runs automatically every 60 minutes. To sync immediately, go to Settings > App Marketplace > Breathe and click Sync manually (🔄).
Resource Planner
Synced time-off bookings are marked as imported from external software in the Resource Planner.
