Approved leave appears on the board automatically

Overview#

Leave is requested in Leave Management. Once a request is approved, its period appears on the Schedule & Whereabouts board as all-day leave. There is no need to add it to the board yourself.

Steps#

1. Submit a request with Request Leave in Leave Management.
2. When an administrator approves it, the leave appears on the board for that period (several days show as one entry).
3. If the request is rejected, set back to pending or deleted, it disappears from the board. If the dates or type change after approval, the board follows.

How leave types map to the board#

The board category depends on the leave request type:

• Paid (full day) → Paid leave
• Paid (half day) → AM half-day / PM half-day
• Sick → Sick leave
• Wedding or bereavement → Condolence leave
• Unpaid → Absent
• Other (maternity and so on) → Special leave

What you see#

• On leave days, the member list on the board does not show attendance (such as Not clocked in).
• Clicking an entry created from a leave request opens it view-only with a note that it was generated from a leave request. Change it in Leave Management.
• If you export leave to Google Calendar, approved leave goes into Google Calendar too (Export to Google Calendar).

FAQ#

• Does leave show before approval?: No. It appears when the request is approved.
• I want to mark a day off without a request: Use Add schedule on the board and choose a leave category (Paid leave, Comp leave and so on). You can change or delete these yourself.
• Comp leave does not appear automatically: Leave requests have no comp-leave type, so it is never added automatically. Add it on the board if needed.
