Find requests and understand their states
Leaves lists requests visible to your role with summary counts and search/view controls. Pending means the request has not yet been approved or rejected. Review date range and Full day/Subject scope instead of inferring permission from a title alone.
Students and Teachers can request their own leave through the supported workflow. Admin reviews organization requests. The reason and rejection explanation can be private even when a status is visible elsewhere in a report.
Steps
- Open Leaves and locate the request.
- Inspect the dates, requester and state.
- Open details for the permitted reason and review information.
Apply for leave
Use the leave form offered to your Teacher or Student account. Choose the applicable scope and dates and provide the reason requested by the form. If the leave is subject-specific, check the selected subject carefully.
Submitting a request does not authorize the absence until the appropriate review is completed. If a pending request needs correction, use its permitted edit action rather than submitting multiple copies for the same dates.
Steps
- Choose the leave request action from your account.
- Enter the scope, date range and reason.
- Save once and check the resulting Pending request.
Review, approve or reject a request
Authorized reviewers open request details and decide whether to approve or reject. Rejection requires an explanation in the supported review flow. The requester should be able to understand the outcome without another person's private information being included.
Review affects this request; it is not a blanket permission for every future absence. Attendance still needs to reflect the actual session and applicable organization policy. If a decision is incorrect, ask the reviewing Admin to use the proper correction workflow.
Steps
- As an authorized reviewer, open the request and verify requester and dates.
- Choose the intended decision and provide the required explanation.
- Confirm the refreshed status before leaving.
