Time off
Leave requests, approval and availability.
Any active staff member can ask for time off: pick the kind (Vacation, Sick, Personal and Exam by default, editable), the first and last day, and an optional reason. A request cannot start in the past, lasts at most 90 days, cannot overlap another, and you can have five waiting at a time.
Reviewers with Approve or reject time off and a higher rank than the requester decide; nobody decides their own, and a rejection needs a reason. Requesters are notified of the decision, and with Teams on, approved leave tells teammates.
The page shows who is away in the next 30 days, and profiles carry an On leave badge. Approved leave covering at least half of a period excuses someone from assignments and quotas, and a booked session on a day of leave cannot be booked at all.
