Limiting the General Absence Reason List by Staff Type

The approval process for Teaching, Non-Teaching and Prep School general absences differs so we have had to triplicate the reasons.

Because the list is not alphabetically sorted (I'm pretty sure they used to be), staff have to trawl through a list containing 60+ absence reasons to find the one they want.

It would be great if the absences could have a dropdown of staff type where these could be set to the type of staff and similarly, on the employee record, this could be set so that when the employee puts a request in, they only see the absences relevant to their staff type. This would probably be useful throughout the system for example limiting the access to certain records etc based on this type.
