When you add leave requests in the Leave Details window, the request is automatically approved once you submit it.
You can also add leave requests in the Leave Balances (new Leave module) and Manage Employees (old leave system) windows.
Select Leave Details from the Leave menu, and that window opens.
Click the Request button, and the Add Leave Request popup opens.
Complete the fields as described. Required fields are marked with a red asterisk.
Employee: Select from the pull-down list.
Start Date: Enter the date in mmddyy or mm/dd/yyyy format, or click the calendar icon to select the date. Note: Once you've entered the start date, the Leave Dates grid will automatically update.
End Date: Enter the date in mm/dd/yyyy format, or click the calendar icon to select the date. Note: If the end date is different than the start date, the Leave Dates grid will automatically be updated.
Leave Type: Select from the list of leave types available to this employee. Once the leave type is selected, the available amount for this employee is displayed. Note: If the Available Amount remains at 0.00, the employee either doesn't have this leave type or has no remaining balance of this leave type.
Leave Type: Select from the pull-down list. Note: Once you've selected a leave type, the current and scheduled amounts/units are displayed.
Request Amount: Edit the total number of hours or days you're requesting, if needed. Note: Your district administrator has determined whether or not a negative balance is allowed. In most cases, it isn't, so you'll need to enter a number less than or equal to your balance.
Comment: Optional. Enter text such as a reason for the leave that may help the approver.
Substitute Teacher: If appropriate, select a substitute. This choice will be visible to, and editable by, the approver. Note: When requesting leave across multiple days, you'll only be able to select a single substitute. The approver will be able to select different substitutes for different days.
Click Save when you're satisfied that the details are correct.
