Who approves my requests

Last reviewed

How a leave or attendance request finds its approver, backups, away cover and two-level approvals.

Approval is routed per person, not by a blanket permission. In order: an approver assigned to you, otherwise your reporting manager, plus an optional backup alongside either; if none of those exist, the attendance admins. Nobody approves their own request, and the Owner's own requests are approved automatically.

  • Away cover: an approver who is away can name a delegate who is added alongside them for that period.
  • Two-level approval: with the policy on, leave at or above a set length needs a second approval from the people the policy names, after the first.
  • Every "pending approvals" list shows only the requests that person may decide.
