Leave Approver Dropdown Not Suggesting Names

[surajsahani]

Information about bug

The leave approver dropdown menu in Frappe HR is not working as expected. When creating a leave request, the dropdown menu remains blank and doesn't suggest any names as I type. This makes it difficult and time-consuming to find the correct approver.

Proposed solution:

The leave approver dropdown menu should implement a search function that suggests names as I type. This functionality would significantly improve the ease and speed of selecting the appropriate leave approver.

Alternatives considered:

Manually typing the full name of the leave approver (if known). This is inefficient and prone to errors, especially for long names.

You will have to set a leave approver at the employee/department level. The list is populated in the dropdown from there for selection.
