Approving Leave Cancellation Requests

Staff can submit a request to cancel any future approved leave requests from the Staff Hub, these requests will go into a Pending state waiting for admin approval

💡To help your staff submit a leave cancellation request follow this guide

To approve the leave cancellation request navigate to Self Service>Leave Requests and click the Approved Leave Cancellation tab

💡The filters on the left of the screen can be used to narrow down your results. Clicking the refresh button   will pull through the relevant results 

Select the request you would like to approve and click the blue tick

If the original request removed the staff member from a shift(s) you will be asked if you would like them to be reallocated back to their original shift(s)

Clicking Yes here will reassign that staff member, if another person is now working that shift they will be removed.

The leave request will then be cancelled and the staff member will receive an email confirming their cancellation. 

If you do not want to allow them to cancel their leave click the red cross, you will be asked to enter a comment before clicking Save. The staff member will receive and email declining their request and detailing your comments.
