How an employee submits a leave request
Scope note
Leave request actions depend on role permissions and your organization's approval workflow.
Why this matters
Accurate leave requests help managers plan earlier, reduce last-minute surprises, and improve schedule reliability.
Before you start
Make sure the employee knows:
- the dates involved
- the type of leave if applicable
- any notes that should be shared with the organization
Steps
- Open the leave request area.
- Create a new leave request.
- Select the relevant dates or period.
- Add the necessary details.
- Submit the request.
What happens next
Once submitted, the request can be reviewed by the appropriate admin or subadmin before it affects planning decisions.
Tips
- Submit leave requests as early as possible.
- Double-check the selected dates before sending.
- Add useful notes when clarification may be needed.
Troubleshooting
The leave request is missing information
Review whether the employee selected the right dates and completed the required fields.
Planning still shows availability
Check whether the leave request is still pending or has not yet been approved.
