Time off
Requesting leave, approving it, and who gets told.
Time off connects to the rest of the product: approved leave changes your availability, so teammates stop being offered slots you were never free for.
Requesting
Request leave from your own time-off screen, or by setting one of the away statuses — Out sick, Working from home or Out of office — if your workspace has put those behind approval. In that case setting the status files a request instead of applying it, and the picker says so.
A reason is required by default
The organization can turn that off in Org settings → Time Off, but out of the box a request explains itself, and that's enforced on the server rather than by a required-looking field.
Who is told
| Event | Notifies |
|---|---|
| Submitted | The approvers, in-app. |
| Approved | The requester. |
| Denied | The requester. |
| Withdrawn | The approvers. |
Managing the policy and approving requests needs the member-management permission.
