Overview
This article describes the process of creating a holiday request within the HR Module in Workforce Management (WFM).
How to Create a Holiday
- Under the HR module, go to Employees > Employee List
Fig.1 - Employee List in the HR module
- Find the employee that has requested the holiday and select the name to enter their personal file
Fig.2 - Example of employee that requested holiday
- From the employee's HR page, select Create Holiday Request on the top right-hand side
Fig.3 - Selecting 'Create Holiday Request'
- Alternatively go into the Employee HR Info drop-down and select Holidays, where the Create Holiday Request link can also be accessed
Fig.4 - Alternative way to accessing 'Create Holiday Request'
- Select the date range that the employee requires. The easiest way is to use the calendar icon on the right
Fig.5 - Selecting Date Range
- Once the dates have been entered, select Calculate Number of Days – which works out how many days the employee has requested. If this is correct, select Save to save the request

- Once the holiday request has been saved, each day will come up as an individual request, and until authorised by a line manager, it will show as unauthorised. Requests can also be deleted from this view

- If a day requested falls on an employee's scheduled day off, then select unpaid, which will not take the day out of their holiday allowance
Fig.8 - Selecting unpaid holiday
- At the right of the screen, there is a clear record of how many days per year the employee has been allocated, how many of those days they have accrued and how many days have been taken to date

- Once Save is selected, the holiday information is updated and the booking is completed on the system. This can be deleted at any time before the holiday is taken
