Absence Status is changing with timecard status

Summary:

Hello, We are having absences in Submitted status and we are considering in timecard.

However when we save timecard of that week absence status is also changing to save and when we are going to submit the time card we are getting error for saved absence.

Example :

Step 1 : Employee applied for Annual Leave from 22-Jun to 25 Jun and he submitted these absences.

Step 2 : Time card generated for week 20-Jun to 26-Jun

Step 3: Annual leave automatically populated in timecard but we need to add project and and task details as well for each time entry. So we can't make it read only.
