How to update or remove approved time off requests
Approved time off requests appear on both the Schedule page and the Time Off page to ensure staffing visibility and accurate record-keeping.
Things to know
Important: To edit or remove time off requests, Managers and Assistant Managers require the "Can approve/decline employee time off requests" permission enabled.
- 7shifts Managers cannot edit time off requests submitted by other Managers because they share the same hierarchy level.
- Employees can delete approved time off requests in their own account.
