How an Employee Requests Time Off

If your company has more than one time off type to choose from, you can select it from the drop down arrow, otherwise, use the default time off type.

Here is where you will enter your time off request. Make sure you are requesting the right Time Off Type.

Your company's policy may limit how many hours at a time you can request. Speak to a supervisor or HR admin for more information.

In this example we are selecting a full day.

Enter the date for the time off request, either by typing it or selecting it from the calendar.

You may be required to leave a comment depending on your company's policy.

Here you can see your balance for all of your Time Offs. The current balance is displayed at the top. You can see the period that the time is accrued to, how many hours you have taken during the accrual period, and how many hours you have already scheduled and approved.

You can go straight to your time off request by clicking on the Menu > My Info tab > My Time > Time Off > Request

Here you will start your time off request. You can view what time you've already requested on the calendar at the bottom of the page. If you want to view your balances, you can change the time off type under Accrued Balances Details (where the arrow is pointing).

To start your time off request, click on the magnifying glass for the Time Off Type at the top of the page.

Select your Request Type. For this example, we will be requesting Multiple Days

You can type in the days, or use the calendar picker in the fields.

Enter in how many hours of PTO you would like per day. In this example, we are requesting 8 hours, so the request will go through for 8 hours every day from 08/15 - 08/20 (a total of 48 hours)

Depending on your company, you may have rules set in place that prevent you from requesting off certain days. For our example, we do not work on Saturdays or Sundays, so I can't ask for time off on those days.

With this item, we can submit the time off request anyway by clicking the button at the bottom right. If you get an error that won't let you submit your time off request, talk to your manager for assistance.

The time off request is now pending. For this example, you can see that no time off is requested on Saturday and Sunday because the business is closed those days. If the time off is approved, you will see the request goes from an outline on the calendar to a solid color.
