Review and approve time-off requests

When someone on your team requests time off, it comes to you to review. You can approve or decline requests, see them on a calendar, and book time off on a contractor’s behalf.

Where to find time off

Go to Attendance → Time off. A banner shows how many requests are Pending. You can filter by employee, leave type, status, and date range, with quick chips for common ranges and a Pending chip. Switch to the calendar view to see who’s off and when.

Request statuses

• Draft — started but not yet submitted by the contractor.
• Pending — submitted and awaiting your decision.
• Approved — you’ve approved the time off.
• Declined — you’ve declined the request.
• Cancelled — the request was cancelled.

Approve or decline

1. Open a request to see its dates, leave type, duration, notes, and the approval chain.
2. Click Approve or Decline.
3. To handle several at once, select them and use the bulk Approve / Decline bar.

You can also Book time off on behalf of a contractor, and view your public holidays for reference.

For how a contractor submits a request, see Request time off.
