Employee Requests
On this screen, you can view and manage employees’ requests for time off, availability, and shifts. The screen opens to the Time Off Requests view by default. Although each view displays different information, all views show the status of each request.
The Employee Requests screen offers three views:
Tasks performed from this screen:
- Filtering employees
- Adding a time off request
