Request Absence in the web Browser

A simple guide to creating an absence request directly from the schedule.

Updated yesterday

How to make an absence request from your browser

  1. Go to Schedule in the menu on the left

  2. Click the shift you cannot work

  3. Click “Cannot work”

You will now see up to three options, depending on your company setup.


Option 1: Find substitute

Use this if you want to find a colleague to take your shift.

  • Select the absence type

  • Add a comment to your manager explaining why you cannot work

  • Click Continue

  • Choose one or more colleagues from the list

  • Click Submit

Your request is sent to the selected colleagues and your manager (depending on setup).


Option 2: Shift offer

Use this if you want to offer your shift to all eligible colleagues.

  • Your shift is published as an open shift

  • Colleagues are notified and can accept the shift

  • Your manager can then approve the request

  • The schedule updates automatically once approved

You can see open shifts at the top of the schedule page.


Option 3: Send to manager

Use this if you want to request absence without finding a replacement or offering your shift.

  • Select the absence type

  • Write a comment

  • Submit your request directly to your manager

Your manager must approve the request before the schedule updates 👍🏽

⚠️ Important: It is your responsibility to follow up with your manager if the request is not seen in time.
