Request and Approve Time Off
Time-off requests give clinicians a clear way to communicate unavailability and give approvers a record of the decision.
Request time off
- Open Time-Off Requests.
- Select Request Time Off.
- Enter the requested date/time window and an optional reason.
- Submit the request.
- Use the status filter to check whether it is Pending, Approved, or Denied.
You can also cancel a request when it is no longer needed.
Review a request
Approvers use the time-off approval workflow to search requests, review the clinician, requested window, and reason, then approve or deny the request. A denial requires a reason so the clinician has a clear explanation.
Keep the schedule in sync
Review time off before generating or approving a draft. A request is not a substitute for checking the schedule: if a new or changed request affects an already published period, create a modification draft and route it through the normal review process.
For recurring patterns that are not leave requests—for example, a clinician who never works Tuesdays—use Recurring Unavailability in availability and constraints.
