## 🔄 **Customer Update Flow**

### **What Happens When Customer Updates:**

```

4. System adds columns to leave_requests table
   ↓
5. System runs seed_initial_leave_balances migration
   ↓
6. Reads "Total Paid Leaves" from settings (default: 12)
   ↓
7. Loops through ALL workspaces
   ↓
8. Loops through ALL users in each workspace
   ↓
9. Creates balance record for each user
   ↓
10. Logs: "Leave balances initialized for X users across Y workspaces"

## 💡 **Support Scenarios**

### **Scenario 1: Customer says "balances not showing"**
**Solution**: Direct them to click "Initialize Leave Balances" button in Settings

### **Scenario 2: "Migration failed"**
**Solution**: Ask for error from `storage/logs/laravel.log`, likely database permission issue

### **Scenario 3: "All balances show 0"**
**Solution**: They need to set "Total Paid Leaves / Year" in Settings first

### **Scenario 4: "Can I change annual leaves after initialization?"**
**Answer**: Yes! Change in settings. Existing balances won't change, but new users get new value.
