You can enter your time off for previously taken time off or for future planned time off.
Time off must be entered in full or half-day increments. Enter “1” for full-day increments and “0.5” for half-day increments.
Note: If you/your employee works an overnight shift (e.g., 10:30pm to 6:30am or 4pm to 12:30am), manager should perform a Change Location business process transaction to provide Work Shift of 8 hours, 10 hours or 12 hours) and Time Off will default hours appropriately. For those working an overnight shift, the Work Shift amount will drive the default hours on absence request and may need to be adjusted to match actual hours used.

To add others to review/approve time worked, you may grant the role of Timekeeper (assignable by your business office) to a specific Supervisor Organization.
