- Click Integrations.
- Click Gusto under “People Integrations”.
- Under “Event Types,” select whether you’d like to:
- Sync all submitted and Approved PTO
- This is Accelo's recommended setting - it presents a more accurate picture of your team's expected future availability and can be helpful when determining whether to grant a time off request.
- Time off requests will be synced with Accelo as soon as they're created in Gusto.
- Sync only Approved PTO
- This setting is useful when trying to keep your Accelo calendar clear - usually used when you have a large volume of time-off requests being made frequently.
- Only time off requests that have been approved will be synced with Accelo.
The sync will begin automatically once the settings have been chosen - and continue to sync every 15 minutes to provide the most up to date PTO status in Accelo.
