Setting up the hierarchy for Leaves allows you to define who approves leave requests for each of your team members.
There are 3 main steps to this process:
-
All managers who are required to approve leave requests must be first assigned a Line Manager permission under Role Management. Click here to learn more about assigning permissions.
-
On the Line Manager's Work tab, the first check box under Reports To will automatically be selected indicating that they manage leaves for their team (having line manager permissions on Bayzat).
-
If they are not the final decision maker for their team's leave requests, select the 2nd check box 'Time off decisions require additional approval' - which means that the leave requests have to also be approved by the next manager in the reporting line.
-
On each employee's profile, you can select who their leave requests should be sent to under the "Reports to" field.
-
Under the Work tab, scroll down to "Reports to" and fill in the name of this employee's approver for all leave requests
