Adding or editing an absence (Planner)

If, as a planner, you click on an absence or add an absence for an employee, you have a number of additional functions. You can approve, reject or give an undecided status to a request.

• Send notification: Ensures that the employee in question receives a message.
• Intermediate shifts: This determines what happens to the shifts the employee has on the schedule during the absence period. See below the three possibilities.

1. Show in schedule: Leave the shifts on the schedule. Attention! If you copy the schedule automatically, employees may receive a double registration for that day.
2. Remove from schedule: This will hide the shift so they aren't visible on the schedule. Hidden shifts won't be copied to the time sheet. You can make the shifts visible again by editing the absence and choosing for Leave in schedule.
3. Move to open shift: This will move the shifts from the employee to the open shifts. This allows you to invite other employees to work that shift.
