I am happy to share the answer to this FAQ!
If your employees cannot see a certain absence type they are supposed to within their employee profile (Absence tab), this might be due to two aspects:
The employee lacks access rights: For example, when a new absence type is created, employees must be granted with the corresponding access rights for them to be able to see, request or edit it within the employee profiles.
When accrual policies are activated: Employees only see absence types which have accrual policies activated, if they have been assigned with one. For example, in the Absence type for “Vacation” accrual policies are normally activated. If an employee has not been assigned to one of the accrual policies of the absence type for Vacation, they will not be able to see this absence in their profile.
