My Time-off

‘My Time-off’ is a personal page where you can view and manage your requests.

It is opened automatically after selecting the ‘Smart Time-off’ in the ‘YOUR APPS’ section of the ‘Apps’ dropdown.

For efficient management of vacation schedules use the Manager Dashboard function.

This function is disabled by default, but you can enable it on the Manage Your Apps>> Smart Time-off >> Setting page.

After this, you can set available vacation days and hiring dates for users.

After setting the available vacation days per year you can create a request. Click the ‘Create Request’ button as shown in the screenshot below.

The two types of requests are available there:

for another user.

In both cases, the Requester has to be granted the ‘Create request’ permission on the ‘Smart Time-off Permissions' page or to have the following permission being a member of a group that is granted with this specific permission. Read more about the Setting Permissions.

Status of request

Right after the creation, the request has got the ‘Pending’ status.
