Submitting a Leave Request

Prev Next

Leave requests are submitted using the Leave Requests option. Leave requests can be submitted by the user who entered the request or by the employee for whom the leave request was made.

Note:  After submitting a leave request, notification emails for approval will be sent to the appropriate users (as based on the approval paths used with the leave requests) if designated to do so in the Email Manager option. If there were notification emails that did not go through, an error will be tracked in the Activity Log (on the System Log tab) and an alert will appear on the main School Accounting System screen. If an email is rejected, the rejection notice will be sent to the appropriate address for the designated email address in the Email Manager option.

How to submit a leave request immediately after entering:

  1. With the leave request to submit displayed on the entry screen, click the Submit button.

    Note:  If the leave request for the employee matches another entry that was previously saved and/or posted for that particular leave with the specified start date, a prompt will appear; click the Submit button to continue submitting the leave request as is or click the Cancel button to not submit the entry in order to make changes.

How to submit a saved leave request:

  1. Select the Leave Requests menu (or select the Leave Requests menu and then Inquiry).

  2. On the Leave Requests screen, select the Inquiry tab if not already selected.

    Note:  The Inquiry tab is only available if the user has rights to enter leave requests (within the User Security option).

  3. The leave requests previously entered by the user in the last six months display showing the applicable status (Unsubmitted, Pending, Approved, Recalled, Rejected, or Cancelled). If desired, change the filters to modify the leave requests listed on the screen.

  4. Click the View/Edit link to the right of the leave request to submit, or double-click on the leave request.

  5. Once the leave request displays, click the Submit button.

    Note:  If the leave request for the employee matches another entry that was previously saved and/or posted for that particular leave with the specified start date, a prompt will appear; click the Submit button to continue submitting the leave request as is or click the Cancel button to not submit the entry in order to make changes.
