Explains how to request time-off ahead or in advance via My Time > Time-off Request
Requesting Time-off #
If you want to submit a request ahead of time for paid or unpaid leave (e.g. vacation, family leave etc.) goto menu Time > My Time-off and follow these steps:
- Click on ‘+’ new icon to create a leave request
- From the Time off Type dropdown choose a leave type for example Paid or Vacation or Sick
- Select or key in a Start Date and an End Date for which you want to take this leave. You can plan to take leave well in advance, or you can fill back-dated leaves in the past
- You can select a Half day or a Full Day (or other day fractions depending on how your time-off types were customized) for the first and last dates of your leave
- The duration of your leave is calculated automatically, excluding holidays or weekends
- Optionally provide a reason for requesting leave. Depending on how your system is set-up there might be options to record the customer, project or task you are working on (to accrue leave against)
- Most important, don’t forget to submit your leave. Click on the submit link in the top right corner
Note: you cannot request time-off if you have an insufficient balance. You also cannot submit two leave requests for the same date unless they are both for a half day.
