Error Message and Troubleshooting
Fig.1 – Error message when attempting to create a Holiday Request
The message occurs due to the configuration of Days Available to Work within the Employment Details page.
An employee can only request holiday for days that they are available to work. There is no need to request holiday for days they are not going to work anyway.
For example if only Monday is ticked (see Fig.2), the employee will not be able to book holiday from Tuesday to Sunday.
