How to make a request with a "Days in Lieu" policy
Making requests with this policy type follows the same basic structure as a traditional request (information about that here).
The only difference is during the initial selection of time. A pop-up will appear asking if the request is for time worked, or time off.
- By default, the system will only count impact for "Working" requests that are made on weekends or holidays. The user can over-ride the impact if need be.
- By default, the system will only count impact for "Time Off" requests that are made on regular working days. The user can over-ride the impact if need be.
After selecting the request type, and the days, the user can click add to receive the request summary as with all other requests.
