Request leave or time off

Block out unavailable dates, contractors do it instantly; W-2 staff submit leave for approval.

How you block time depends on your employment type. Contractors add self-service time-off blocks that take effect immediately. W-2 staff submit leave (PTO) requests that a manager approves.

Step by step

  1. 1Contractors: open "Time Off" in the sidebar, enter a start and end date/time plus an optional reason, then click "Add Time Off", it blocks scheduling right away.
  2. 2To remove a contractor block, click "Remove" next to the entry.
  3. 3W-2 staff: open "Leave / Time Off" in the sidebar and choose the leave type plus the paid and full/partial-day options.
  4. 4Enter your dates (and times for partial days) and a reason, then click "Submit request".
  5. 5Watch for a conflict warning if the time overlaps an existing job, it warns but does not block you.
  6. 6To cancel a staff request that is still pending, withdraw it from the same page.

Tips

  • Contractor time-off needs no approval; W-2 leave does, a manager approves or denies it.
  • For W-2 staff, an estimated hours total and your PTO balance show as you fill out the form. The balance is informational only and can go negative.
  • If you are not W-2 staff, the Leave page points you to the contractor time-off flow instead.
