Leave Management

HR Managers use Leave Management to organize employees leave requests. The HR department keeps track of each leave request along with its status to better track the employees and ensure that the time requested for leave is reflected in the Payroll.

Leave Management contains one main component called the Leave Request.

Leave Request

An employee can generally request his/her own leave through the Self-service. However, if an employee does not have access to a computer the employee's direct reporting manager(s) or someone from HR can submit the Leave Request for approval on behalf of the employee. In such case, the employee will be notified when the Leave Request is created and for every status change of the request. The notification includes a link that enables the employee to open up the Leave Request for review and further action (Cancel, Submit, keep editing - Created).

A Leave Request can be generated by someone else than the person requiring the leave or it can be generated through the self service portal where a person is filling out their request.

Leave Request status/state include the following: Created, Approval Requested, Approved, Rejected, and Cancelled.
