Leave Request Approval
- Michelle Drewes
Supervisors will be able to approve their staff’s leave requests via the home screen or the Leave Request Approval option on the menu (below). Once a leave request has been approved or rejected, it will be removed from the leave request grid (as well as the ‘leave request approval’ grid on the home screen)
Role: Users with Leave Request Approver role.
View a Leave Request
If you prefer to view the details of a leave request before approving it, click on 
Approve: A pop-up confirmation window will appear providing a note area to optionally enter a reason for the approval. Click Approve. If there is another approver in the workflow, the leave request will move onto the next approver. The originator will be notified that the request has been approved. The leave request will remain as a status of ‘initiated’ in their ‘My Leave Requests’ grid until it has been through the entire approval workflow, at which time the status will be updated to approved. The originator may open the leave request to view the ‘Leave Request Approval Trail’ which will include the approvers who approved the leave, optional notes they entered, and the date/time the leave it was approved.
Reject: A pop-up confirmation window will appear providing a note area to enter a reason for the rejected request. Click Reject.
Mass Approve or Mass Reject Leave Requests
Click on one or more checkboxes to the left of each staff member listed to approve or reject their leave request(s). Click Approve or Reject. A pop-up confirmation window will appear displaying the number of leave requests you are approving or rejecting along with a note area to optionally enter a reason for the approval. Click Approve again.
