Requests Query

Usage

Requests Query is for viewing both types of staff requests (shifts and leaves) and gives managers the facility to approve or refuse pending staff Requests.

By clicking on a request, you will see whom approved, authorised or refused it and the date/time this was completed:

Approved request:

Refused request:

When a leave has been requested which results in a shift wrapping around it, the Requests query displays:

This visually shows all leave and shift requests in one screen.

Selecting an approved status on just the leave automatically updates the wrap around shifts too:
