Create a leave Request (My Leave)

This article covers: New Leave Request.

Before you start

Access. You need access to Employee Services > My Leave. If you do not see it in the menu, ask your administrator for the role that covers this area.
These lists must already have entries, because the window picks from them: leave types (add one).

Steps

Open Employee Services > My Leave.
Select New Leave Request.
In the window New Leave Request fill in the fields below.

Field	What it means and what to enter
Leave Type	Choose from the list.
Day Type	Choose one: Full Day, First Half, Second Half.
From Date	The first day the record is in force.
To Date	The last day the record is in force. Leave it empty if it has no end.
Reason	Say why. The text is kept with the record and shown to whoever reads or approves it.

Select Save Draft.

The window closes and the table shows the result.

If something does not work

The button "New Leave Request" is missing. You do not have the permission, or the page is not in your menu. See Access above.
A list in the window is empty. The records it picks from do not exist yet. Add them first: Leave Types.
The window will not close or shows a message. Read the message: it names the field that is missing or not allowed.
