Time Off Approval page

Use the Time Off Approval page to review and approve or deny time off requests for your team.
Note: A newer Approve Time Off page is available for approving time off starting with the October 2024 update of Workforce Management.

See Approve Time Off page

By default, if you have access to the Time Off Approval page, you can approve requests for the members of their teams, submit requests on behalf of employees, and recall previously approved requests when permitted. To support a more controlled approval process, approvals can be limited to users assigned to specific roles. For example, only managers can approve certain request types, while users in other roles can view requests but cannot act on them.

In addition, permissions to approve, deny, and recall time off requests can be granted separately. For example, you might have permission to approve requests, but not to deny or recall them.

See the Security group configuration.

If your company uses a multi-level approval process, a level can be associated with each role that approves time off requests. For example, PTO requests are first approved by a supervisor (level 1) and then approved by a payroll administrator (level 2).

See the Limiting approval by role.
