Management
(time-off-approvals)=
Time off and allocation requests undergo an approval process before being granted. Requests either need one or two approvals, if any, depending on how the specific type of time off is configured. All these configurations can be found under the Management section of the Time Off application.
Only people who can approve allocation and time off requests have the {guilabel}Management section
visible in the Time Off application.
(time-off-manage-time-off)=
Manage time off
To view time off requests that need approval, navigate to {menuselection}Time Off app --> Management --> Time Off. Doing so reveals the {guilabel}All Time Off page.
The only time off requests that are visible on this page belong to employees the user either has
{guilabel}Time Off Officer or {guilabel}Administrator access rights for in the Time Off
application.
The default filter on the {guilabel}All Time Off page is Waiting For Me.
This filter only presents time off requests that need to be approved for current employees on the
user's team, with a status of either {guilabel}To Approve or {guilabel}Second Approval.
On the left side of the {guilabel}All Time Off page, there are various grouping options that can
be used to narrow down the presented time off requests, located beneath the {guilabel}Status and
{guilabel}Department headings.
Since only time off requests that need to be approved are shown, the only {guilabel}Status options
are {guilabel}All, {guilabel}To Approve, and {guilabel}Second Approval.
The various departments the user is a member of, and manages employees under, also appear on the
left side of the page, under {guilabel}Departments.
:::{note} If there are no requests that fall under one of the status options or departments, that status or department is not visible on the left-side menu. :::
To only display time off requests for specific departments, click on the {guilabel}Department on
the left-hand side of the page. Only requests within the selected department are then presented.
The status column displays the status of each request, with the status highlighted in a specific color.
The {guilabel}To Approve and {guilabel}Second Approval requests are highlighted in yellow, and
are the only ones that appear in the list by default.
If the Waiting For Me filter is removed, all statuses appear.
{guilabel}Approved requests are highlighted in green, {guilabel}To Submit (drafts) requests are
highlighted in blue, and the {guilabel}Refused requests are highlighted in gray.
To approve a time off request, click the {icon}fa-thumbs-up {guilabel}Approve button at the end
of the line.
To validate a time off request that has already been approved, and is waiting on a second approval,
click the {icon}fa-check {guilabel}Validate button at the end of the line.
To refuse a request, click the {icon}fa-times {guilabel}Refuse button at the far end of the
line.

For more details, click anywhere on the time off request line (except for the {icon}fa-thumbs-up
{guilabel}Approve, {icon}fa-check {guilabel}Validate icon, and {icon}fa-times
{guilabel}Refuse buttons). Doing so loads that specific time off request form. Depending on the
rights of the user, changes can be made.
To modify the request, make any desired changes to the form. All changes are automatically saved.
It is also possible to approve, validate, or refuse the request from this form. Click the
{guilabel}Approve button to approve, the {guilabel}Validate button to validate, or the
{guilabel}Refuse button to refuse the request.
(time-off-manage-allocations)=
Manage allocations
To view allocations that need approval, navigate to {menuselection}Time Off app --> Management --> Allocations. Doing so reveals the {guilabel}Allocations page.
The user is only presented with allocations for employees they have either {guilabel}Time Off Officer or {guilabel}Administrator access rights for in the Time Off application.
The default filters configured on the {guilabel}Allocations page are {guilabel}My Team and
{guilabel}Active Employee. These default filters only present employees on the user's team (who
they manage) and active employees. Inactive records are not shown.
The left side of the {guilabel}Allocations page has various grouping options to narrow down the
presented allocation requests.
The {guilabel}Status options are: {guilabel}All, {guilabel}To Approve, {guilabel}Refused,
and {guilabel}Approved. Click on a specific {guilabel}Status to view only requests with that
specific status.
To view all allocation requests, regardless of status, click {guilabel}All under the
{guilabel}Status heading.
It is also possible to display allocation requests by department. Click on the desired
{guilabel}Department on the left side of the {guilabel}Allocations page, to only present
allocations for that specific department.
:::{note}
The groupings on the left side only present allocation requests that fall under the default
filters of {guilabel}My Team and {guilabel}Active Employee, if those default filters are not
removed from the {guilabel}Search... bar. Only the statuses for allocation requests that fall
under those filters are presented on the left side.
For example, if there are no requests with a status of {guilabel}To Submit, that status option
does not appear in the left-hand side of the {guilabel}Allocations page.
All departments for the user's employees appear in the list. If there are no allocation requests that fall under that department matching the preconfigured filters, the list is blank.
It is always possible to remove any of the preconfigured filters, by clicking the
{icon}fa-times {guilabel}(remove) icon on the specific filter to remove it.

The status column displays the status of each request, with the status highlighted in a specific color.
