Request Time Off

Human Resources / Request Time Off / Scheduling View Time Off on My Calendar

Once your time off request has been approved, if your organization has additional time off settings configured, an appointment will be automatically added to your calendar with a PTO service code. This will prevent you from getting booked during your scheduled time off and allows you to convert your time off to a timesheet.

To view your time off request on your calendar:

  1. Navigate to the Scheduling module and select View My Calendar.
  2. Enter the date you have time off scheduled and approved.
  3. The request will be shown on your calendar and the corresponding time will be booked.

The time off requests added to your calendar must be converted to a timesheet for payroll transactions to be recorded correctly. You must convert the appointment as soon as the time off occurs.
