How to Approve and Deny Requests for Time Off
Managers can approve or deny employee Requests for Time Off (RTOs) before generating a schedule.
Notes
- Pending Requests for Time Off (RTOs) are listed alphabetically by the employee's last name.
- When generating a new schedule, SubItUp automatically honors approved RTOs, ensuring employees are not scheduled during their approved time off.
- All RTOs should be approved or denied before generating a schedule. Once a schedule has been generated, even if it has not been published, approving or denying an RTO will not automatically update the schedule.
- If an employee submits an RTO that conflicts with an existing scheduled shift, the request will automatically be denied. The employee will be notified that they must drop or swap their scheduled shift to request that time off.
- Requests for Time Off are position-specific. Employees who work multiple positions must have their RTO approved by the manager of each position.
Important
If an employee submits an RTO for all positions but is already scheduled in any of those positions during the requested time, the request will not be processed because of the scheduling conflict. The employee will be notified that they must first get their scheduled shift covered by dropping or swapping the shift before submitting the RTO again.
