Fiori Leave Request/Approval: days counters showing zero

Hi,

I've been working with the Fiori leave request app and the Approval app which are working fine connected to the ECC back end. I have 2 questions which I think are related to either the app config or the HCM config. I have attached screenshots of the employee leave request UI and the homepage showing the approval app my questions are:

1. The days counters are always showing zero even when looking in the backend in PA30 at the info type the employee has absence quotas etc set up.
2. The same for the number of approvals, that shows zero but press the approval tile and you will see there are alot of approval requests...so it seems to be the tile counter not updated.
3. The final question is the absence types, where does it pick these up from? In PA30 in the backend we have about 10 absence types but only one is picked up by the Fiori leave request

Thanks for any help.

Peter
