- Navigate to the user icon in the top right hand corner and click on My profile.
- Go to your calendar. Click on a single day or click and drag to select multiple days on which you wish to take leave
- Select the kind of leave you prefer from the dropdown menu
- You then have two options:
- Select “Yes” next to “All day” to take the entire day off.
- Deselect “Yes” next to “All day” in order to specify the hours. That way you can also take half a day off
Note: It is possible that you do not have the option to select specific hours. Then the administrator of your account specified under Settings > Holiday management > Vacation types that this leave type can only be taken in full days.
5. Click “Add”. Now your request is sent for approval.
6. As soon as your request has been approved, the colour will become darker
How partial leave appears in your timesheet
When a partial day of leave is approved, only the hours taken are deducted from your scheduled hours. For example, 1 hour of leave on an 8-hour working day leaves you with 7 available hours in your timesheet.
Partial leave days are shown with a grey-shaded time bar (instead of fully grey like a full-day absence), and hovering over it shows the 'Time off'.
