Absence Request
You can use VP Timeclock to send absence requests, and to review the status of your previous requests. All time off requests are sent electronically to the Appointment Queue at the bottom of the HR Manager calendar, where administrators can accept or deny them. You can optionally notify the employee via VP Messaging when the request is either accepted or denied. Accepted requests will appear as scheduled events in your HR Manager calendar and your Office calendar, and optionally the Notes section of your Grid Bar. You can review all requests, including accepted and denied requests, from the Appointment Queue at the bottom of the HR Manager calendar.
