Absence Entries for Approval

Use Absence Entries for Approval under Finance & Administration to view, approve, or reject employees' absence entries.

To use the Absence Entries for Approval submodule, you must have access to Finance & Administration as defined in the User Access Rights submodule under Settings.

The Absence Entries for Approval submodule provides an overview of the absence entries submitted by employees.

You can use the information on the Absence Entries for Approval screen to verify and ensure the timely approval of absence entries.

The Absence Entries for Approval submodule has one main grid and a bottom grid. The main grid has columns for absence information such as employee name, absence start and end dates, absence type, number of work days from start to end dates, and approvers, among others.

The main grid allows you to perform the following actions:

• Force approve absence entries
• Reject absence entries
• Add approvers to absence entries
• Search for absence entry information
• Display booking information

Note: To manage only the records that require your approval, go to Tasks > Approval > Absence Entry Approval.

The bottom grid displays booking information for a specific absence entry. Information is presented in a calendar format which can be displayed in day view, week view, and month view. You can also specify the number of days that you want to be displayed.

The bottom grid allows you to perform the following actions:

• View the total number of hours for the following: capacity, holiday, annual leave, and available capacity
• Search for booking information
• Filter booking information

In addition, clicking a resource's thumbnail from either the main or bottom grid opens that employee's resource card.
