What My Leave is for
My Leave is where you submit leave requests, see what you have available, and track the requests you have already made. Open it from the My Leave card in the My stuff section of the Dashboard's My Day tab. The page itself is titled Leave Management, with the subtitle "Apply, balance, history and (for managers) approvals".
This article is the tour of the page. The step-by-step guides are:
- My Leave: apply, edit, cancel and return early — the employee process, including certificates and what happens when your balance is short.
- Manage your team's leave — the manager process.
- Leave request statuses field definitions — what every status badge means.
If you see "Your HR profile has not been set up. Please contact HR.", none of the tabs appear until HR has created your profile.
The tabs
Apply for Leave
Where you submit a new request. Pick a Leave Type; the page shows your Available balance and what is already reserved, or an "Unlimited" card for types without a balance. Choose Days, Morning Half Day (4h), Afternoon Half Day (4h) or Custom Hours, set the start date and, for Days, the return-to-work date. The page works out working days, weekends and public holidays for you. Attach a document when the type requires one, or acknowledge that you will upload it later. Managers also see an Approving Manager (Optional) picker.
If the request is more than your balance, an Insufficient Leave Balance panel asks how the shortfall should be recorded before you can submit.
My Balances
One row per leave type: Leave Type, Entitlement (earned), Monthly Rate, Balance and Taken. The Balance cell also shows Pending days and your Projected balance after pending requests are approved, and flags types that are unpaid or need a certificate.
My Leave History
Every request you have made: Leave Type, Start, End, Duration, Manager (who it is routed to), Status, the manager's Comment and a Document column. Rows with an outstanding certificate carry a Certificate REQUIRED tag, which becomes Certificate OVERDUE once the leave has ended; an "Outstanding Medical Certificate(s)" panel at the top of the tab lists them. From here you Edit or Cancel a request, upload a document, open the request's chat, or choose Return Early on approved leave.
Pending Approvals (managers only)
Managers get a fourth tab with a badge counting the leave, custom-schedule and cancellation requests waiting on them. The same requests are on the company-wide approvals inbox; see Pending Approvals for the full tour of that page.
Where overtime and custom schedules went
Requests for a one-off change to your working hours, and shifts your manager assigns to you, are not on this page any more. They are on the Custom Schedules tab of My Schedule.
