Requires the Leave Management feature to be turned on in Settings → Features.

Need a day off? You can send a leave request straight from the Atteny app, and watch it move from pending to approved without chasing anyone.

  1. 1

    Open Request time off

    On the Home tab, find the Quick Actions grid and tap Request time off. The Request Leave sheet slides up.

  2. 2

    Pick the leave type

    Tap Leave Type and choose the kind of leave you want — for example vacation, sick or unpaid. If that type has a balance, you'll see how many days you have available.

  3. 3

    Choose your dates

    Tap Start Date and End Date and pick them from the calendar. The app shows how many days you're requesting and warns you if the range looks wrong.

  4. 4

    Add a reason and submit

    Under Reason, briefly describe why you need the time. Then tap Submit Request.

Tracking your request

Your request appears in the Leave section of the More tab with a status label. It starts as Pending while your manager reviews it, then becomes Approved or Declined. While it's still pending, you can tap the small next to it to cancel.

Send your request as early as you can — it gives your manager time to review it and plan cover for your shifts.

You can also request leave from the web app at app.atteny.com if you'd rather use a computer.
