Time off request approval for MVS users

In addition to the normal processing of time-off requests, the application generates a relief shift as part of the approval of a time off request. The relief shift backfills the workload that was originally covered by the requesting employee. Upon approving a request, the supervisor is required to select one of these relief shift statuses:

• Unfilled
• Pending
• Relief Not Needed

To configure the Time Off Planner for relief shift generation upon approvals, set the value of the /system/modules/timeOffPlanner/PLUGINS registry parameter to es-mvsTimeOffPlannerPlugin.

Only shifts that are scheduled by MVS and covered by the approved time off request can generate relief shifts. Rejected time off requests also do not generate relief shifts.
