Your time off balances

Each card is one time off type. It shows whether the time is paid, your available balance, and the next scheduled accrual. A negative balance appears in red.

Some time off types do not track a balance. Their cards say that no balance is configured instead of showing zero available hours.

Press View activity on a balance card to see every accrual, usage, carryover, and adjustment for that time off type.

Requesting time off

Press Request time off to open the dialog. Pick the time off type, set the hours per day (e.g. 8 for a full day, 4 for a half-day), select the days on the calendar, and optionally add a note for your manager. Press Submit request.

The request appears under Your requests as Pending while your manager reviews it.

Managing your requests

Use Pending and History under Your requests to see pending, approved, and rejected requests.

  • Pending — you can cancel a request before it's decided. To change one, cancel and submit a new request.
  • Approved or Rejected — you can't change these yourself. If approved time off needs to be adjusted or removed, ask your manager.

Common questions

Why is my balance lower than I expected?

Press View activity on the time off type's balance card to see every accrual, usage, carryover, and adjustment that affects the balance.

When does my balance go up?

Each time off type has its own accrual rule — by hours worked, on a set schedule, or annually. Its balance card shows the next scheduled accrual and the amount when it can be predicted.

Why can't I edit a pending request?

Pending requests can only be cancelled, not edited. Cancel and resubmit with the correct details.
