Book time off for an employee

How admins request leave on an employee's behalf in ZenAdmin — the Submit Request drawer, half days, attachments and balance preview.

Admins can book leave for anyone from the person's profile — useful when someone calls in sick or HR is backfilling records. (Employees book their own leave in ZenEx.)

Steps

  1. Open the person in the Employee Directory and go to their Time off tab.
  2. Click Request Leave.
  3. In the Submit Request drawer, choose the leave type, the From and To dates, and the day parts — All day, First half or Second half on the start and end days.
  4. Attach a document if the policy requires one for this length of leave, and add a note.
  5. Submit. The drawer shows the remaining balance as you pick dates, so overdrawn requests surprise no one.

The request then follows the policy's approval flow like any other — see Approve and manage requests.
