Request time off

You can request time off by adding a staffing exchange to the schedule, and by indicating in the exchange whether or not the hours are covered by another staff member. If the hours need to be covered by more than one staff member, you must add an exchange for each staff member covering the hours.

Example: You are planning a vacation and want to request time off for a 24-hour shift you would normally be on duty for. The shift must be covered by other staff members, but no one can cover the entire 24 hours themselves. Tom can cover eight hours of the shift, Dick can cover 12 hours of the shift, and Harry can cover the remaining four hours. To cover your 24-hour shift, you would need to add three exchanges to the schedule--one for each staff member covering your hours.

Information on adding an exchange is available in Add a staffing exchange or exception.

You can also request time off for long periods of time by requesting an extended leave. Information requesting an extended leave is available in Request an extended leave.
