### **4. Comp off Credited Successfully But the Employee cannot See or Use the Comp Off Balance?**
When comp off is credited through **Leave → Utilities → Comp off Credit**, the employee may still not be able to see or use the comp off balance.
This happens when **Use Credit** is not enabled for **Comp-Off Leave** under **Leave Opening**. Crediting comp off through **Utilities** alone does not make it available to the employee.
This helps in:
* Making credited comp off visible in the employee's leave balance
* Allowing employees to apply for the credited comp off
**Important:** If **Use Credit** is not enabled, the credited comp off will not appear in the employee's balance.
**Path**[**: Login into Cloud Portal → Leave → Transaction → Leave Opening.**](https://cloud.pockethrms.com/Leave/Setting/LeaveOpening)
**Step 1:** Log in to the **Cloud** portal. Go to the **Leave** menu, click **Transaction** and select **Leave Opening**.
**Step 2:** Select the **Category** of the employee.
**Step 3:** Select **Comp off** from the **Leave** dropdown.
**Step 4:** To enable **Use Credit** for a specific employee, enter at least 2 characters in **Select Employee** and choose the employee.
**Step 5:** Select the **Employee Type** as **Live** or **Left**.
**Step 6:** Click **View**. The system displays the employee list with the **Use Credit** column.
**Step 7:** Select the **Use Credit** checkbox against the employee.
**Step 8:** Click **Save**. The credited comp off is now available to the employee.

### **5. How to check the comp off credited date or the date on which comp off was credited?**

**Step 1**: Log into the **Cloud** portal, go to the **‘Settings’** menu, click on the **‘Leave’** tab and select **‘Leave Type’**.

**Step 3**: Check the **‘Activate Elapse’** fields. There are three separate settings:
* **Activate Elapse** – applicable on **Weekoff**
* **Activate Elapse** – applicable on **Holiday**
* **Activate Elapse** – applicable for **working hours basis**
For each setting that applies to your company, select **‘Yes’** in **‘Activate Elapse’** and enter the number of days in **‘Elapse Expiry Days’** (for example, **30**) as per your company's comp off policy.
**Step 4**: Click on the **‘Save’** button.
