  Key Concepts: 
  Leave without pay (LWOP) is a type of leave that allows an employee to take time off from work without pay. It is typically used when an employee needs to take time off for personal reasons, such as illness or family emergency. LWOP can also be used when an employee is unable to work due to a lack of available work or other circumstances. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In the SAP PSM-FG Functions for U.S. Federal Government, LWOP is used to record the time an employee takes off from work without pay. This information is then used to calculate the employee’s salary and benefits. To record LWOP, the employee must submit a request to their supervisor, who will then approve or deny the request. Once approved, the LWOP will be recorded in the system and will be reflected in the employee’s salary and benefits calculations. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When requesting LWOP, it is important to provide as much information as possible about why you need to take time off without pay. This will help your supervisor understand your situation and make an informed decision about whether or not to approve your request. Additionally, it is important to keep track of how much LWOP you have taken so that you can ensure that your salary and benefits calculations are accurate.
